Envious

The young in general are so
Physical. It's not just youth
Which takes to preening so
Their movement is so much
More languorous. Children,
They're jumping - sideways,
Around, dodging, and loud.
Running into and away in a
Pattern athletes could envy
But I am the most envious
Of their fluidity of their ease
Of their comfort with bodies
In motion, of performances
So simple yet so acrobatic.
