Dance…
*****************************************
Whenever I hear the word “dance” I always think of the LeeAnn Womack song, I Hope You Dance. I also think of Garth Brook’s song, The Dance.
Both of those songs are about not taking anything or anyone for granted. Living life. Sharing days. Looking back and being glad you were there.
In that moment. For that time. Clock hands stand still.
Swaying, and laughing. Stomping and twirling. Moving to slow songs that only you and special others know.
Dancing.
Knowing it won’t…can’t…. last forever……..but, while you are there……just dance.

It Just Dawned On Me 
Well, said. Just dance in the moment! 🙂 Thanks
Lovely poem. and an enjoyable moment being here.
I love the line in LeeAnn’s song, “And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance”. It’s a choice, this dance of life. I hope we will always choose to dance.
