THE DANCE II



Life is but a dance,
And those that partner take the chance,
Although the partners know not all the steps,
They get together and learn the dance.
Life teaches the partners.
Different rhythms
And different rhymes.
The dance is in the touch,
In the sharing,
In the understanding,
In the caring,
In the rhythm,
And the rhyme.
The dance is in the boldness of the step,
In the timing,
In the squaring off,
In the twisting and the bending,
Is the closeness and the growing of the hearts
The dance is in the choosing of the heart,

In the asking of the chance,
To find another's heart and dance.
