The Love Step

       Two dancers
           embrace on destiny’s floor.
       Their dance
           started in youth
           moves them apart
           into other arms.
       Their music
           carries the message;
           they are still in step
           to be united again
           and end rehearsal
           for the next dance.

Katharine L. Sparrow July 8, 2023 at 6:43 PM This tender piece makes me think of fate and how we almost don't have a choice about whom we love in this life. If it is meant to be, it seems it will happen! A couple dancing is perhaps the best metaphor for this phenomenon, well done.
