Dance…

Dance for the world
For the ones you have lost
For the ones you will gain

Dance for the sick and the poor
For the luxurious and the well
And for the ones they call “normal”

Dance for your mothers and fathers
For your sisters and brothers
And for the children who will someday be yours

Dance for the ones at war
For their loved ones who miss them
For the enemies – because they are loved too

Dance for the neglected children
Who long to be loved
For the kind souls who take them in

Dance for the young and the lively
For the old and the brittle
And for all the in-betweens

Dance for joy
Dance for regret
Dance to remember
Dance to forget

Dance for you.
