    dotsA tiny poem for the happy dots
    -------------------------------------------


    Shall we catch sunlight
    will we dance with the rays?
    like little sprites
    in a summer night

    Shall we run trough memories
    shall we live in dreams
    have we forgotten
    how to sleep?

    Are our glories
    exagerated
    and our sorrows
    demeaned?

    Shall we catch sunlight
    between the lilies
    and the flickering
    marigolds

    Shall we hear the wind
    and hope
    and dream
    perhaps even live

    Shall we dance
    let us dance
    among the lilies
    and the rays
    of sunlight gone'
    and sunlight to come

      Shall we run [trough] memories = through

    this is happy.
    one rarely reads anything happy on here.

    im wondering why the whole piece is questions though. shall we is an interesting question because it gives the reader a chance to say no... no i dont want to run and frollick and dance. im not sure but i would think that less questions would be better because i know if i am bombarded with questions one after another i just switch off and hardly answer them at all...

    you need to think more about punctuation. there are a whole lot more questions than there are question marks and there are no commas to be found. punctuation would definitly pull this piece in at the edges and make the words frollick so that the reader cannot help but want to dance.

    but really. i like the way end encompasses all the questions so youre kinda answering them but not really...

    id love for you to give this a different name...

      I agree w/Daisy.
    It is almost pixie-ish.
    There are really fun and serious bones to this piece. I think you could prune it down to have an even greater impact on the reader. As well, I would either punctuate the entire piece or not at all. You could re-think the 'Shall' here too. Not that I don't like repetition (I use it all the time) but maybe in S2:

    Shall we run trough memories
    live in dreams
    have we forgotten
    how to sleep

    just thoughts really.? And I didn't punctuate... (can't help ya there).

    All in all... I really do like the message. Dancing is good for the soul!!

      Now I want to dance outside with the grass beneath my bare feet, dew seeping through my toes. Happy imagery indeed.
