The Dance

The Dance

my soul it longs to dance

but my body must refuse

so my mind i have to enhance

my words carefully i should choose


These words i put together

Just hoping they make sense

They will withstand any weather

And anyone's pretense.


They dance across the page

Rhythmically in measure

Loosened from their cage

My very own treasure


This is the Terpsichore of my heart

Something no one can take

Everybody plays their own little part

We all get to partake.

One's poetry comes but from one's own heart. A lovely way you put that into verse...and even a bit of Greek mythology.................g

Thank you so much Gogant. You are so kind with your compliments!!

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
