we dance

& the center holds
because of what
within

is left
loosly
turning

with us as we change
direction
destination

we deal with loss
with a twirl
& dizzy

the days away
knowing
someday

it will all make sense
like a turn
or a new twist

this loving
is all we can count
on for time

will away with us
no one will believe
our story

but we keep
telling
as we dip

our days
away, away
we go on holding.

Mutt, I think this is one of your best poems, and clearly the best of the bunch. I like the way the images of motion are mimicked by the line breaks. The poem has motion--the way the heart does! nicely done! Nice yeats reference!
