Dodging and weaving
In a dance of intention
Nose down to paths
Coming into focus
Like water defining
Crack-open fissures
Love draws onward
Alluring and sacred
Often fighting the
Urge to retreat to
Sheltered safely
Hallowed woods
Unwilling to yield
Scintilating quarry
Flushed out from
Hiding in tall reeds
Leaping into flight
As hearts bargain
Making promises
Granting freedom
