Now I Can Dance

Contributed by Lilly-Quill on Wednesday, 19th April 2006 @ 09:07:09 PM in AEST
Topic: LostLove



Once I held the moon-and-stars in your eyes of love.
Now, safely we dance around the other- with gloves.
Just for a-moment-in-time I was your special Queen.
You opted for second best, admitting what wasn't seen.

Rehashing, wondering: had I known this Queen would fall?
Some walls are tall, although I might have changed it all.
Past regrets, now I'm glad I didn't know.
The way it all would end, the way it would go.

Our lives aren't left to chance; I still miss you friend.
Moving on, long after the memories linger in the end.
Within that moment 'we danced a lifetime' of creativity.
I haven't missed the pain, now that my dance is Liberty.

So I hope new season finds you 'well' today.
Is the sun shining in the southern Alabama way?
For some people the heavens can get it so right.
Like an angel you see, surrendered through the night.

All the clouds have all disappeared.
Blessed peace, nobody knows me here.
In this transitional path, so blessed...
Now I can dance, laugh, and sing the best.

Dance me to Your beauty with a burning violin.
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in.
Rhythmic fires of passion burn with your love and zeal.
Ascending, as Highlander, empowered me to do Your Will.

Lift me like an Olive Branch and be my homeward Dove.
Dance me to the end and transform from Heaven above.
I've cleaned my plate, left the past, free from strife.
Freedom's dance at-last has come, rich and full of rife.

Oh let me see Your beauty when the witnesses are gone.
Let me FEEL YOU MOVING like they do on Mount Zion.
Show me slowly; sway me with Your heart's desire.
I'm lost in Your presence, enraptured in Your fire.

Lord, dance me to The Wedding and dance me on and on.
Dance me very tenderly and dance me ever long.
Both of us beneath the light-; we're both of us above.
Dance me ever after, Lord, by all you know and Love...

Dance me to the Children, ones who're asking to be born.
Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn.
Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn.
Break-off all the chains of sin; dance them 'safe and warm.'

Nice, LQ! I read this in perfomance mode and those words just flowed like honey off m' lips. There's a passion presented in this piece that reaches and rises to the Spirit of God. And, o' course, ya put The Mountain in there so how can a mountain cowboy not like this sucker? Beautiful poem!
