Young kites within dance spring smiles delicate Soft words floating off with tides drifting close Small steps subtle eyes kind dreams beloved Light touched ocean sand born of summer coast Tall trees aging slow gold leaves hardened oak White woods winter waltz gentle purple sky Short days fading fire warm tea autumn notes Love slow moments and snow for passing time
