Dance.

Fly

Feel

Connect

Let the Earth move you, the sky take you

Learn to trust

Your dance partner is an extension of you

Reach each other, become one

It’s art in its truest form

With trust and connection,

You take flight

Feel your feet leave the solid ground,

Feel your heart beating in your chest as you fly

Be free.

Express who you are

Let your body paint a masterpiece of movement

Let the music take over and tell your story

Feel the presence of the space,

Be unafraid

Fearless.

Let your soul take flight

The ground roots you,

The sky pulls you close

Your feet pound on the solid floor,

You can feel the Earth spinning

To dance is to let forth the truest form of yourself

To dance is to love, to connect, to trust, to learn, to live

To dance is to be free


The author's comments:

I have been dancing for nearly thirteen years--it's who I am. For me, dancing is taking flight. This poem expresses that passion, and I hope it inspires, relates to you, or just makes you smile. Dancing taught me to be who you are, no matter what people may say the limits are. Really, I've learned there are none!
