My mom
Says I have gypsy feet.
They are always taking off,
Sashaying
Into meadows
Of purple poppies
And alabaster snapdragons.
She says
She doesn’t know where I get them.

I liked the imagery here. The short syntax portrays the image of a child "sashaying", as you say. However, the line breaks seem arbitrary and it doesn't feel finished!!
