Sashaying

Long ago my young feet would quickly kick off high heel shoes. Spinning around the dance floor tapping bare toes to every beat. In his arms, my soul felt safe, sashaying until midnight. © January 27, 2012 Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Written for Poetry Soup Member Contest: ON YOUR FEET Sponsored by: nette onclaud
