"The peacock calls out softly
to its mate
who waits ... hesitating and uncertain .
Then, he, glancing up at the sky leaps from his stage – the earth
unfolding his
bejewelled
ornamanted
tail
to awaken her desire,
to allure and to entice her with it's splendour.
She succumbs and surrenders.
And then,
to the heart beat of the universe,
he performs his exuberant dance
celebrating oneness with her and the universe”
