GOD NEVER TOOK AWAY THE DANCE


They said all worldly gyrations
In your walk would give you hesitation
Far too sensual in the movement
Meant for sinning heathen allurement

While only seldom spoken verbally
But caught through what they didn’t say
Behave yourself in a dignified manner
Contain the Life or principles scatter

They repress the Spirit’s beckon to move
The body to express that God is good
To rejoice in the day that He has given
At the end of which we have truly liven

Glorify the Lord in your mortal body
He never took away the dance
Can you conceive at the Supper of the Lamb
Jesus to the wall as a wall flower will stand

Sense His movement among us now
Why Fred Astaire would need come bow
James Brown does not have a clue
The steps that God would do with you

Take Him up on the offer of romance
Tho’ the dignified may smugly disdain it
No, God never took away the dance
It is for you and for me that He gave it

Would you like to dance with Me?

LayItDown:  Really enjoyed your poem!  I used to love to dance but it's been so long, I don't think I know how anymore. I'd be glad to dance with you though, if I could!

Oh this is wonderful! No surely God never took away the Dance. To dance is like praying with our whole body and mind. Yes I will gladly dance with you!

This is so inspiring! I think I'll write another poem about dancing....
Come, let's dance for the glory of God.
Oh now tears .... remembering a dream ....

Let us express harmony and beauty!
I am so happy I came across your poem.
Love, Margherita

Ladies!

Ok, ok, I'd be happy to dance with you.
But bear in mind, Someone wants to cut in!

(smiles) God Bless You, dearest friend, He will never take away the dance, for the dance is the most perfect form of art with our spirits, to see how free, how graceful we can be and envisioning how free we could be! (big hugggssssssss) So dance with your Father, I will too, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jack, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

God gives us so many gifts, and you've recognized one of them very well! Well done, LayItDown!
