She Danced


She Danced

She danced to forget the loss of love
She danced to remember the passion of love
She danced to lose herself in rhythm
She danced to find herself in rhyme
She danced to dry her tears
She danced to face her fears
She danced until heart and soul were healed

  5. There IS such a thing as dancing by yourself, getting into the rhythm, enjoying the release. I love to listen to music and move to the groove ;)

  9. Indeed. Dancing is healing, and an old Native American way. The image portrays hope, healing, and new beginnings with the dancer in nature. Great poem to go with the image.

  11. I saw this post just a few hours after burying my prize goldfish Mojo, days have passed since then. I know Mojo was just a fish - but it had life. The bodies of humans and beasts will return to the earth from where they came, but does that which occupied the body go as well? A million dollar question I suppose... Anyways, all of this just to say the dancer first appeared to me as a freely released spirit, joyful, happy, and carefree.

  12. I'm sorry to hear about Mojo. He wasn't 'just' a fish-- he was YOUR fish and you have every right to feel sadness. Yes, that is a million dollar question alright!
    Thank you for your nice comment, Preston! :)
