This dance’s intention: Night Bloom

What in you is waiting for the right conditions to bloom?

Some flowers open only after the sun has disappeared.

They need no instructions.
They do not strain toward the light.
They simply wait for the conditions that allow what is already within them to unfold.

On this late August summer night, let's gather to create those conditions together.

NIGHT BLOOM

There are flowers that wait for darkness.

All day,
they hold their fragrance close,
asking nothing of the sun.

Then evening comes.

The air cools.
The garden grows quiet.

And under the guidance
of the moon,
something hidden
begins to open.

Perhaps something in you
has been waiting, too.

And given the fertile dark,
the beckoning moon,
the ancient rhythms,
and a body unbound,

that bud will remember
how to bloom.
