Just Dance

Blindfold, sense the beat with your heart
memories in your muscle will move you
alignment to rhythmic body wave 
barrida sweep turns to a colgada spin
passion channeling embrace bending
gancho maneuver and a volcada lean
arms around, arms interlock 
feel the movement within 
synchronicity of one
body, mind and soul
when you discover the rhythm of my inner core
the circle is finally complete

( Learning about Tango Movement Vocabularies )

The very first line of this says everything to me! I've seen the Tango and this write now makes me want to look up these movements to know exactly what they are! "Synchronicity of one body, mind and soul"...isn't that exactly what a dance is all about? Very nice write Angeline!

Yes, Synchronicity is important in all types of dances... and also in poem collaborations. Unfortunately, not everyone can dance and move with music.... for some, it takes much more practice...
