The Lone Skater -

Moonlight bathes the ice
fluorescent diamond blue
A lone skater breathes in the space
cool mist filled breaths
enshrouding her pale face.
in silver threads she takes a step
gliding elegance of a silken web
she spins, floating on a misty air
to a lover she senses near
rushing through him
brushing gently over her skin
senses alive, a burning flight
blades slice the silence of the night
turning swiftly, chipped ice flies
a fountain of stars beneath her feet
to dance upon with easy grace
