A Star Twinkling In the Sky

A STAR TWINKLING IN THE SKY Music lifts my spirit and fills my soul. Music stirs me up and makes me feel each rhythm, each beat or melody letting myself loose and move to the tempo and each movement becomes an expression of art. It does not matter what music genre, as the music, my musicality and timing transform me into a versatile dancer, emoting the music with my body. A dancer moving gracefully to slow beat or moving with precision, intensity to different kinds of rhythms, melodies. When I’m dancing, I feel transported to another world or in a trance. I feel free expressing my emotions, feelings of serenity, freedom, happiness while my body sways, shakes, moves rhythmically, graciously, agilely, artistically, harmoniously, pleasingly. I feel like there is nobody around me, disassociated with other dancers, or others looking on or merely watching. I feel free like a bird flying high in the sky, a butterfly spreading its exquisite wings. Free like the air that I breathe to feel alive, feeling free to be free, feeling free to be me. Feeling like a star twinkling in the sky, so I’m stamping one of the stars my pen name, Sweet Lady Jane, and how sweet it is to do so on one of the bright stars twinkling. Ahhh…the feelings of peace, freedom and jubilance make me dance with gusto, zest and enthusiasm showing my authenticity that catches many eyes and spreading joy that brings enjoyment to people around me. They let me know in many ways that they are delighted watching me. Now, they don’t need to see me dancing on the dance floor, they can look up at the bright star with my name, twinkling, winking.

Thanks so much, Susan. I remember the host of a poetry open I attended last year called me poetess. I told him I am?, I don't even use flowery words. My poems usually comes from my life experiences and yes, that soulful emotions. I'm winking at you now.
