Gregarious

She glides on air, this flittering bird,
Mere inches above the flickering footlights
That sparkle and sway as she swishes about
In butterfly fashion, charming the crowd.

Stealth is her enemy, whispers unwanted.
Best to gain conquest of every ear.
Accent promoted by flirtatious gestures.
Senses of subtlety never allowed.

Friends who adore her cling to each word.
Strangers are friends who she just hasn’t met.
She is the magnet, the shining example
Too fit, too humble to ever be proud.

So, hum little hummingbird. Sing to the masses.
Kiss every petal that brightens the room.
There is no sentinel tracking your purpose,
No reason you shouldn’t shout out loud.
