She was a dancer
She said it was all okay
The power was hers

Love this, E. In my "dancing days", I don't know that I ever felt "the power", but I certainly did feel free.

Alas I'm too old to dance. Lovely thought.

Ah, just a couple nods and shoulder twitch? If only the feet and hips would go where the heart desireth! Elizabeth

Thank you, Milton. Not great poem, but sometimes I just have a thing I want to say. You are a good listener! Elizabeth
