Zumba By the Ocean
By the ocean I stand
On a hot sandy beach
My feet are bare and I wear a violet summer dress
Beside, in front and behind me are people of many ages, and nationalities
I feel as if I am just one in a million crabs on this particular day
Soon like the sound of roaring waves
Latin music rumbles out of a radio
An instructor or in my mind leader of the crabs begins to lead us in Zumba,
Like an out of body experience
I am watching my body dancing from the sky
My body relaxes
I am now fully engaged in Zumba
I am now engulfed in the moment
I am laughing, smiling and dancing
I feel free and happy
While enjoying Zumba by the ocean
