The music may pause, and the moonlight may dim
But the lady still dances in whirls of her whim
Her heart holds the magic, the tune and the beat
And nothing can capture her magical feet....

A woman of pleasure wrapped up in a smile
And when she can dance, all is well for awhile
She dances for love, be it lost or asleep
And always the dreamer, her dreams she will keep...

She looks in the fire, it glows in her eyes
And even in daylight, she holds no disguise
But don’t be so foolish to think she is tragic
For she’s full of strength, not to mention some magic...

So, listen with heart, and the music you’ll hear
Then sit by the fire, with skirts twirling near
And join her in movement, in laughter and giving
For always she'll dance, making life well worth living!!


Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life

Dear One With the Sun ~

My goodness, girl! You sure can write and fire up one's imagination with your own! That was a downright entertaining and magical read! You certainly have not lost your any of your magic in your far-too-long absence!!!

"You Can’t Stop a Gypsy from dancing!" ~ Nope! Nor would I even try! lol

BTW, your meter was impeccable!

Sending you a humongous welcome-back hug,
Linda

Hi Sunsis, and another email is coming your way, too!  Just be careful, and don't get those veils too close to the fire, ok??  ~S~

Hi LeeJ!  Aha..you guessed it...this will at some point in time be written into a song, but in my head it already is.  Thank you so much for taking the time to share the moment with me...~S~

Hi Linda!  You always know how to make me feel so appreciated, and to tell the honest truth, I never have studied all the special ways of writing poetry.  Mostly I write lyrics to go with my music, and this one just seemed to take hold.  Like I've said before, all hugs are much welcome, especially from good friends like yourself!!  ~S~
