Notes About The Poem

Lovely Dancer

Lonely dancer
Song of life
Dancing in the firelight
Twirling as the music plays
Feign and sway your night away

It seems like double meanings here - Is there a person dancing (lovely, lonely), or does it seem as if life itself is dancing and singing in the flickers and transience of the flame. Is it real life or does it just feign life? Or is it both? The ambiguity makes me pause and enjoy the firelight. J :)

Thank you, Jeannette! I love to read how another poet views my work. They always provide new insight, find meanings I never explored!... Fran
