Your presence made the whole effect complete---
your bright eyes; shy, coy smile; and stockinged feet,
brought, to their finest form, in artistry
inherent through your choregraphy,
as you expressed a living poetry.
Some others may not quite appreciate
what you contributed: their drooling mars
their own response to what you have achieved.
But even if these same may derogate
the moment, they are simply self-deceived.
Your dance, gestures, and footsteps constellate
a knowledge (beyond words' ability
to tell), lasting long as time and the stars'
light; and the sum of all verb forms, "To be."
