Your Light Shines Bright
Incredibly natural in your element,
precise and with such flair,
endless joy is always evident
after years of training with so much care.
Every sense in me takes notice,
your smiling face constantly aglow,
how radiant your form
you just don’t realize, you must not know.
My mind eternally fascinated,
as you dance across the floor,
my eyes helplessly transfixed
as you melt me to my core.
Any spotlight completely pointless,
any stage would be child’s play,
your spirit burning brightly
bids my heart to always stay.

This was as enchanting as the dancer you described.
Amazing use of the image, your words brought it to life even more, nicely done!
The devotion came through wonderfully, illustrating emotion very nicely, and I love the way the aesthetics of the visual form fits the object perfectly. Very nice job. Thanks
Chris, the images you choose are always amazing! The words, equally so. Together…a tremendous bright spot in a very dull day. Love the rhyme and play of this one, the dancing words. Wonderful!
Tash, I always appreciate your accolades and the opportunity to brighten up your day! ~ this is one of my most favorite poem projects! And yes… it was all about the warmth and joy of dancing, so confidently, so graciously!
Beautiful poem, fantastic upbeat dancing words 🙂
A bright splash of cheer! Thanks for sharing this.
my favorite, well done!
