THE MAGIC OF DANCE
Magic happens to us when we dance.
Endless possibilities to enhance
Routine life, with its daily grind,
Replacing it with something divine.
Yearnings deep, stir our souls within.
Cha Cha, Rumba, Foxtrot, Swing,
Happen when teachers do their thing.
Remarkable talent, shared with novices,
Inspire students to practice, practice.
Salsa, Merengue, Waltz and Tango
Transform us from plain to “fandango”.
Making new friends along the way,
As we learn to glide and learn to sway.
Sharing the joy of dance every day.
As we progress from Beginner to Bronze
New steps, new spins, more emotions turned on.
Dance allows freedom of expression to come.
Happiness, joy, freedom, passion,
All are expressed in some manner or fashion
Painting a picture, telling a story
Presenting ourselves in all our glory.
Yesterday’s problems put away for awhile.
Nothing else can quite make us feel
Energized and excited, full of passion and zeal.
When we are dancing, we are alive, we are real.
Yes, when we dance we become complete.
Each of us filling our own special need.
Achieving our individual goals and dreams
Reaching the stars, or so it seems!
