The Alluring Dance

Aye, what a revolution in red and orange against the venom of society and culture With the flowers of right palm though a gesture of dance in fact covers her tears A story of blue tension and deep emotion in red flamenco so flamboyantly executes the dancer The crimson movement of the lyrical arms and torso in sync with the guitar is awesome Unique euphoria of exuberance in the swirl of a female figure so provocative What a dancing dream doing up the drawings of the body on the fly What a message of moons in mounds you convey through the crafty curves And each passing passion pulsates from prose to poetry of muscles and bones Eros encouraging us to transcend ourselves through the journey of desire like a fountain From brownish black towards the orange flames on the comely conical mountains And the warmly amber valley as it mingles with the flames from the dancing spark Blackens darkens and then harkens at joyous response of mesmerized connoisseurs Deepens the dense dance still further by generating romantic proposition in her gestures Unstoppable time hypnotized to stop for a moment to stand and see how infinity can dance Time itself in much ado on the long neck of reddening movement Aye, you dancing fire spreading your oranges everywhere from Andalusia to Madrid And then all over the globe amazing you me and all in modern style of elegant gestures Sliding the shoulder blades down the back and thus the chest held proudly Inviting inquisitive attention to read the poems up to the chin and down the tall back Closing the eye for a few seconds we see in awe our fertile dear earth in a dance of rebellion The earthy and raw in a fascinating gesture of life we do need to feel so much That while in the midst of viewing what you interpret we too get merged in the dancing colour Aha! What a phenomenon ____________________________________________________ September 23, 2017 For the contest:Poems that paint a picture 3 Hosted by: Silent One
