Bluefeet

Galapagos!

Blue Bop

of Blue Bird feet,

brushing

bustling

plip-plopping

‘cross the sand,

puffing on seasalt,

greeting fellow dancers

saluting the shifting waves

sailing in from Ecuador.

Bop Hop

Blue Bird

stashing evolutionary mysteries,

shoetop tips

swimming in

riding blue teacup leaves,

running blue shoes

skipping over currents,

Galapagos rhythms

untamed,

essential heartbeats.

and along with the wind

the tides applaud

while the waves heartily further:

“BlueFeet:

make more babies!”
