The Perfect Partner - Dance
To a rhythm my feet were moving.
Left, right, T.A.N.G.O.
Moving at a pace full of life and spirit.

From nighttide’s celestial dust,
Dance of barefoot...

Dance Lives Life
Like a sweet child in ballet
toe steps glide across the archway,
A graceful pirouette holding breath and heartbeat
balanced then suddenly rising like modern athletes.
A rhythmic cadence hustles across the days
when life is simple...

The Neapolitan Tarantella
The Neapolitan tarantella
is a folk dance very graceful and lively,

Days and nights of hibernation
within the clapboard walls,
winter winds have eased
and only the sound of rain peals

Her eyes were azure blue,
