A GYPSY DANCE

Contest: THROUGH AESTHETICA 
Sponsor: Nette Onclaud
Date: 18th July 2026

Fast foot tapping
Thigh slapping
Arms flapping
Hands clapping
Twirls, grins, skirts spin...
With spontaneous grace at a glance
What a playful and merry chance
To share in  A Gypsy Dance!

What first came to my mind was the old record by Cher "Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves". This is a simple to read, yet quite descriptive. Great job!
