OctPoWriMo Day 11: Move your body, move your words

Our bodies move as one
in a dance that's both
as old as earth
and new as now.

Wordlessly
we move in breaths
sustaining us
from east to west.

Words only form
when least tried for;
your lips move,
soundlessly
with each pulsation and palpation
speaking for itself.

Great imagery. I love the first stanza:
Our bodies move as one
in a dance that's both
as old as earth
and new as now.

Especially "and new as now."

Thank you. xoA

I agree with Annis - "old as earth and new as now" has a beautiful ring to it.
