From your Feet

Poem Commentary

Picture a little girl dancing on her uncle's feet at his wedding.... Rough childhood memory. Vague, I know. Comments!

From your Feet

Spinning,
My room falls.
I clutch your knees,
I'm so small.

Such a happy place,
"She's so cute."
The music's pace...

Happy.
Like your hands on mine,
Your black suite,
your red tie.

"You're my little girl,"
you say.
"My godchild,"
"my niece."

I squeeze your knees.
As you move,
we glide together.

Steady as you are,
you lead my way.
Forever.

Very Nice, It has a nice flow and I loved it. I even liked the last line of your poem, very nice.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
