Such Grace

--James Laughlin

is in her step     such grace

goes in the movement of her

arms & shoulders as she walks

such grace in how she holds

her head     how graceful the

gestures of her hands     such

grace in the way she slightly

tilts her face toward me when

a smile is beginning there

and float in air of a dan-cer 

suspended flight of a

hummingbird     always she goes

in grace     there is such

grace in all her going.
