Full twirl of life


Poetry Jam

Just dance

“I can't dance” you say
my feet just don't go that way!
Take a chance...
dance!
Life is wobbly at best.
Dance is hard, that I confess,
like a fiddler on the roof
movement is chancy...there is proof
falls happen all the days,
in so many ways!
Traditions broken.. so there is a fall
or maybe, a big wobble that's all.
After you fall, it could....
be good?
You may just find something new
that was concealed from view.
Stand up when life asks you to dance!
Change ..isn't not a happenstance.
Play the music and rosin up the bow.
Even with questions and answers to know.
so.............
take care,watch your step,
kiss your partner and
….....go
Do the full twirl .....................of life
with its slippery roof music and all
you could fall 
but....

When you have the chance........I hope you dance!
