The First Steps

Written by: Arcane Huntress, Varakye Silverwind
Date: Monday, October 1st, 2007
Addressed to: Handmaiden of Terpsichore, Bailana Sharpfang, Madame of Dance


And so I give the first steps, my dear
In prose and cleaver rhymes
Though where you lead now that we're set
IS masked with only time

So pull away a layer love
Come close, I'll take your hand
Guide me in the master steps
Just help my legs to stand

Who needs a sonnet, chorus, or line
When music's in your eyes
Though breathing helps my feet to move
Impossible by your side

So move a little more my dear
Show me what to do
Make memories in the rain with me
I'll smile the whole dance through

Lead me in a lengthy dance
Until our time is done
And if I live, eternal, by chance
My...what a prize I've won


Penned by my hand on the 11th of Glacian, in the year 461 AF.
