Dancers
By Hung Long Tom
The dancing girls
Sway and dance
In perfect rhythm.
Slender bodies
Swaying like flowers
In the wind.
On the willow trees
Hang Willow Lanterns,
And the moon,
An orange lantern,
Glows down
From a perfumed sky.
It is a night of witchery,
Of music
And enchantment,
For the slender girls
Of Wu are dancing.
