Notes About The Poem

Never Stop the Dance

There is a time to dance.
A time not to dance.

I remember when we danced.
Now I have no desire to dance. 
Nor for you to dance for me.

You've danced all your life.
Danced night and day.
Different styles of dance
Dance is all that you breathe.
You are the queen of dance.

I know no one will dance like you.
No one will know my dance like you.
My feet will never forget our dance.
There will be no last dance with me.

Thank you for the memories of dance.
Never regret your soul dancing.

Simple Musing
Silent One

Aqua Marine November 23, 2019 at 11:13 PM Watching others dance, is a natural delight, and the previous comments say it all. This is a poet's delightful dance with word meanings as muse-ical partner- Love the "playful" play on words! Aqua M. (We should all dance the night away!)

Brandy Nicole November 23, 2019 at 10:38 PM Dance is Poetry in Motion. Your thoughts caress the page with longing, desire and that sweet ache. Love tenderly touching moments. This is so beautifully written and presented. ~ Brandy

Johnson Vdev November 23, 2019 at 7:19 PM *Thank you for the memories of dance*.... yes the memories dance after the dance. Another beautiful poem .

Evelyn Judy Buehler November 23, 2019 at 6:08 PM How thrillingly romantic, Silent One! And how nice that when the dance is over, lovers can share the memories of the dance, as your poem states. It's lovely!

Phyllis Babcock November 23, 2019 at 11:56 AM I like the last line of this poem. Never regret but also never stop trying to make your soul dance. Silent One November 23, 2019 at 11:59 AM Yes, sometimes we just have to stop... Thank you Phyl

Besma Riabi Dziri November 23, 2019 at 9:07 AM I liked the way you danced with your very words! Sometimes, there is so much to say and words couldn't keep up with the inner rhythm.. music and dancing would take over.. beautiful and unique.. Regards and blessings, Silent One. Silent One November 23, 2019 at 11:51 AM Thank you Besma..

Maria Williams November 23, 2019 at 5:48 AM I had a friend who was a professional ballet dancer. He fell doing a pirouette. That was the end of his career, sad when someone has to stop dancing. Still as you say...never regret your Soul dancing. Nice write....Maria Hugs Silent One November 23, 2019 at 11:53 AM Thank you Maria..

Rico Leffanta November 22, 2019 at 12:05 PM I spent my youth loving danseuses who loved danse most of all and your words rekindled them all. Aloha! Rico Silent One November 23, 2019 at 12:11 PM Glad it did..

Jennifer Proxenos November 22, 2019 at 11:32 AM Hi SO This poem is sensitive and feeling towards the one you have danced with you, but that is history now, you don't want the dancing anymore, maybe she will continue, but you have no desire left to dance with her. Maybe she will dance with someone else and you and your soul with someone else but definitely no longer together! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Silent One November 23, 2019 at 12:29 PM Thank you.. I wrote this poem because i wanted it to have different meanings, so people could accept it how they would want to.. glad you liked it..

Regina Mcintosh November 22, 2019 at 5:33 AM I love this one. You always surprise and amaze with your words. Love to you, Gina Silent One November 23, 2019 at 12:30 PM Thank you Gina..

Sandra Adams November 21, 2019 at 7:22 PM unless it's a slow dance, or a lover's dance i never cared to learn..long story but anyway, this one left me pondering many thoughts...like a separation of lover's souls parting...they danced beautifully together, but now that they are apart there is no dance... either way, beautifully penned my friend... hugs Silent One November 23, 2019 at 12:31 PM There can be many meanings... glad you liked it thanks..

Timothy Mcguire November 21, 2019 at 5:58 PM WONDERFUL Silent One November 23, 2019 at 11:59 AM Thanks..

Midnight Aurora November 21, 2019 at 4:58 PM Ouch...Sounds like a lot of dancing around the issue of dumping someone.. Midnight Aurora November 21, 2019 at 5:22 PM Lol...guess dancing can get pretty tiring after a while...either way, it seems sad Silent One November 21, 2019 at 5:05 PM That's one way to interpret ..or someone hanging up their boots lol..

Bobby May November 21, 2019 at 4:49 PM Well, lets see you or WW I pick both, brothers to the end although we have never danced thank goodness!! Your message hear is loud and clear! Awesome once again but WW still has the win, LOL Silent One November 21, 2019 at 5:05 PM What's wrong with two guys dancing? Lol...Thanks Bobby..

Vijay Pandit November 21, 2019 at 2:42 PM That quote is so romantic! I hear the message of your poem, SO. Enjoy the life's special moments ..create memories that last. And as you say: Now I have no desire to dance. Nor for you to dance for me. Silent One November 21, 2019 at 2:44 PM Yes, sometimes we just cant dance anymore, but we hope they have someone to dance with.. Thank you..
