My Spirit Soars

MY SPIRIT SOARS 


"The wind rides in solitude,                                                                                                                              In her diaphanous delight                                                                                                                          Her skirts brush eternity,                                                                                                                     To gather the stars of night"


Music fills my soul and wakes up my senses
and I find my whole body moving to the beat,
rhythm, tempo, cadence of the music in precise,
distinguished moves, defined, delivered with feelings.

How dancing stirs me and lifts me up is beyond me.
Every move I emote is an expression of art, feeling
serenity, freedom, happiness and being in a trance
while I sway, shake gracefully, showing my authenticity.

Dressing up makes me feel free, expressing my love
of fashion and expressing my own style, individuality.
It is art to me, playing, coordinating colors, adding
accents of scarves, hair pieces, belts showing my chic way.

Travel enlightens me, brings joy, delight to my being.
It gives me knowledge, being aware of the facts and
familiar with the places I visit while enjoying my stay.
It gives me freedom of exploring and sweet memories. 

How my passions carry, transport me into
another world, where I find solitude, serenity,
freedom, delight, joy or up above with the stars
and that is when my spirit soars with the wind.

I have always loved seeing a woman dance, especially one not wearing a bra as that truly expresses freedom! Enjoyed! Aloha! Rico

When I grew up, only movie stars shackled their bosom and no one had every heard of breast cancer . . . Aloha! Rico

Ha-ha... I do that at home, not on the dancing floor.

A beautiful free verse Marilene, without music or dancing life would not be much fun, whether we dance alone to music or with others it’s magical and energises the soul too. A wonderful contender for the contest… Belle
