I dance for you because
The world is full of horrors
Pink and Fuchsia tones
Are laced with beaded sequins
To dazzle and delight
Your eyes as they travel
Over the curves of my form
Rocking, twisting, shaking
Along hip to hip
Shoulder to milky skinned
Shoulder
Follow my hands
And the drum beat
Away from the pain
Of your day
Your life
To see there is still
Beauty in this world
And a beautiful woman
Who will smile
Just for you…
I dance because
I have hope
And I want to restore
Yours,
And in return
Mine.
So follow the drum beat
That pops my chest forward
With beaded glory
And the creases of your mouth
Change direction
To smile against it's will
Against the darkness
Of office woes
And money matters
And loved ones
Dying in foreign lands.
Strike the zills
In rhythmic time
One hand up,
Across my blues
And sparkling eyes
Connecting in time
Across the chasm of life
Like a flower growing
In an impossible place…
So the blush, and lavender
Shear silks flow through
The air to delight
As I smile
And give some light
To a world that is often
Too dark
When there are so many
Good people
And children
Who suffer…
So I dance
And move my hips
And decorated chest
To bring
The Joy I found
As a Child
Watching my Muse,
I return the inspiration
Of Love of Life
With each
Movement
In time…
Hoping you
Are touched
And I have returned
The gift.
