Analysis of Dance of the light

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



She drew in the light
It ringed around her heart
It chained to the world
Never to part
It danced around space
And washed all of time
And as her light grew
With it the devines
And the angels shon brighter
As whole and brand new
As a once picked flower
Now rooted into
A garden so loving
Every heart was moved
Like hands shaking hands
And feathers as she flew
