Fling your red scarf faster and faster, dancer. <br />It is summer and the sun loves a million green leaves, masses of green. <br />Your red scarf flashes across them calling and a-calling. <br />The silk and flare of it is a great soprano leading a chorus <br />Carried along in a rouse of voices reaching for the heart of the world. <br />Your toes are singing to meet the song of your arms: <br /> <br />Let the red scarf go swifter. <br />Summer and the sun command you.<br /><br />Carl Sandburg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mask/
