Smiling Belly Dancer

Smiling Belly Dancer ……..by Peter Onyancha

Belly dancer
You are another one!
Where do you mine your smile?
Beaming brackets, my my!
This is it, my spirit, speak it
Or belie – are you sly?
The tune is gone – but the charm!
The eyes grow with them and glow
You Smile and I blush – 
How simply, you truly pinch me 
Somewhere deep in the rib!
Look away, from my way
You bully belly dancer

Perhaps she IS sly, Peter, taunting you with her feminine ways! Guess men feel bullied when they are forced to succumb to her charms. My sister in law took belly dancing and it was fun to watch her moves. Enjoyed your poem very much! Love, Carolyn
