Sundrops
i
Dance with me
soldier, sailor, tailor,
stitch back together
all my tatty ends.
Applique my heart,
it's a start.
Stand to attention,
don't mention
differentials -
we match in the essentials.
ii
Dance with me -
a jitterbug of fireflies
beneath the trees
in February,
fancy feet upon emerald grass
through all the sapphire dusk.
Our diamond tears
from the past flung up
like water caught in sunlight.

this is simply lovely, and a little bit of internal rhyme action going on as well, so it resonated nicely with me.
Favorite stanza would be 3, love it *smile*
