Jay Loveless Poet Footle

Dancing - Inspired By Anne Lise Andresen

I miss dancing with my Daddy, 
I stepped upon his feet, 
I held to his legs and round and round
 in circles he danced with me. 
I miss dancing with my best friend. 
We let loose to the jungle beat. 
Our blood flowing faster 
as we turned to wild beasts. 
I miss dancing with my lover, 
His arms held me tight. 
I let go of all my tension 
as we danced beneath the moonlight. 
Now I dance within my dreams, 
as I can no other place. 
No one is here to dance with me, 
I feel without a place.

Fisayo Aderounmu August 16, 2012 at 9:18 AM I salute the pertinence of your insight of dance tho' it's now like a solo dance but not in a hollow cave as you can hear the choruses of hello dancing round your poem. Cheers.

Justin Bordner August 15, 2012 at 11:42 PM yearning such as this cannot go unattended for vey long Jay - I like the nostalgic & melancholic eroticism of this progression - reminds me of the legend of Lilith - with respect, J.A.B. %
