NaPoWriMo #2 : Dance

Let's dance, my friend, my dancing
   friend, let's
throb and rob this night's end to a
  pretty party
where the dance is breath
where the steps take us
close to a God
who delights in our movement
and is praised by our laughter.

  1. Ooh, I really enjoyed this one. Your cadence is so bouncy here, it feels like a dance when reading.

    And I'm an absolute sucker for those last lines. They remind me of one of my favorite poems, 'Come Closer' by Anis Mojgani. "The Lord...made you and was happy / You make The Lord happy." You touch on something very significant here, and I loved reading it. Nice writing, Rhonda.

  2. Thank you for sharing that poem line. It was a joy to read today. I used to write everyday, but have this last year fallen from the grace of that habit. Trying to get back that joy and practice with this month.
