Have You Seen The Petals Dance?

Have you seen the petals dance in April?
Watched them chase one another in a circle
Like orange blossom, an archangel
Rising to the ether on a thermal

Have you trod amongst their spinning spirals?
And fancied you too could be light as air
Drown as a water lily with naiads
Calling you to follow a doctrinaire

Ideal promised you, you can still, follow
And rise again like a water lily
That time is endless, has no tomorrow
Nothing we do is involuntary.
There are always choices worth their weight in gold
Better the petal that hasn’t fallen cold.
