The Dance

The dance
Poised, embracing what is
Holding a thought, grasping a whisper
Determined to find our place
Eager to waltz, floating in harmony
The dance
Balanced in rest

    A really lovely response to the Magpie Tales prompt - but your paintings just blow me away. Would you be offended if I said they remind me of Grandma Moses? - It's meant as the supreme compliment.

    Lovely thoughts of dancers intertwined completely engulfed by the music which lifts them onward.
