Salsa Classes

Salsa classes

I learned to dance at
family and friend’s parties.
I learned by watching.
Not very structured.

When I dance with my husband;
he complains that I don't let him lead.
My mom taught me,
women should be in control.

I danced like this for many years.
At 50, following my soul's desire.
I took my first salsa class.
What a surprise!

Maybe,
my husband was right.
Just let the other take the lead.
Let go and flow.

Perhaps. I can change 
my unconscious dance
into a more harmonious 
sensual movement
