T’ai Chi Chih (February 2012)
By: Joe Michaud
Iowa City, Iowa
It is the silence
Her body moves in,
That moves us.
With liquid smoothness,
Precise control,
She glides in and away.
The power of grace,
The strength of strength unspent,
Draw us into the flow.
It is not the woman
Who dances the dance,
But the dance
That dances the woman.
