He Danced

Poignant, graceful – sweeping
The floor, the soul, with silhouettes
Breathing hope through silence,
Erasing all the melancholic tones
Gray and musty, whispering
As he steps from thought to thought,
Vibrating with rhythmic feeling –
Powerful legs, bending and swirling,
Darting across the memory, hesitating
Healing even the eventual pains,
The lasting ache of grief, restoring
Even the doubts to a faith, a feeling
Blessing and stirring to life all the endless
Inspirations, reveling in the twirl,
The rhythm of a sensation, curling
Feet, blazing passions, penetrating and
Creating moments of victory, winding
Their way through nights meant for those
Who know the dance, in shadowy blue
Quiet the darkness and brighten the azure
Into a cerulean joy, adoring violet hues
Elaborate with moves that break through
Light, sound, serene and uplifting,
Still, cool dreams abiding on the limbs
Impressive sighs, standing through the highs
Swaying, wiggling, cavorting across
The edges of paradise – in a forbidden
Dance, dreaming of the reasons
This is the timeless piece of wisdom,
Rich praise, saluting the laughter of a wife
Who will never understand his desire,
The fever that burns away the worst ire,
Urging his limbs to humble themselves
Delighting in the One who fashioned him
From dust, he rises – praising, dancing, alive
2 Samuel 6:14 (KJV) And David danced before the Lord with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.
