I've been ringing like anklet bells, so clear,<br />Dancing through the hours, chasing my cheer, <br /><br />Sometimes in this step, light on my feet,<br />Sometimes in that step, life's rhythm I meet,<br /><br />Like the jingles on my ankles, my heart's a drum,<br />Beating to the moments, to the dreams that come,<br /><br />Every twist, every turn, a melody plays,<br />Echoing joy in my sunny-days ballets.<br /><br />In every leap, in every spin, I find my tune,<br />Under the silver moon or the bright sun of June,<br /><br />With each step forward, hope's song swells,<br />I have been ringing like anklet bells.
