Dancing Through Time
"Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf." - Rabindranath Tagore 
The prompt "dancing" from Poets and Storytellers United inspired my few words above. Dancing, like laughing, lightens existence. It is the nearest thing to skipping as a child, something we stop doing as adults for fear of looking silly. Skipping, laughing and dancing more would make this a much happier and probably safer world. 
Along the way, I watched a cloud dance in the wind alone amongst the others. 
At the Crescent Beach pier, I noticed a gull with blue and white bands around its legs. 
It's a way for scientists to monitor migration and other significant data. I wondered if the Salish Sea Gull Project was part of these efforts and forwarded them my picture. 
It's fun to swoop and glide. But when a dance is internal, wing flapping and toe tapping seems to matter less than the willingness to surrender to the wonder.
