Words are
all I have
to set the
dance to music,
and the music
is in you
as it is in me.
Time and caution
be damned to the wind
Let's dance
while the moon
is blue.


Touch, but don't look

Yep. Take a chance on the blue moon in the blue room.

Oh yes, I often go out at night to check on the moon. It would be lovely to "dance by the light of the moon" as the old song implies.
Enjoyed your post. Jo perry

Words, dancing and music are all good elements of poetry Mr. Napes and the inclusion of all three in yours makes a top shelf contribution.

Welcome indeed!
