Dancing through Dreams

A whirl of silk
Costumes flashing
Feet barely touching the floor:
Is this flying?

Smiles or Tears
Their faces reveal,
Emotion,
While their arms tell a story.

Forget your fears
As the dreams flow
The Dance creating harmony.

The music narrates,
The dance illustrates,
A story,
A life,
A portrayal of Soul.

The Dance ends.
It goes dark

The author's comments:
I am a dancer as well as an author, and this is how I feel when I dance, and how I feel when I watch a good piece. I hope it gives you a good mental picture. I think it also illustrates life, to a certian point. Read it and form your own opinions!
