Array ( [sid] => 182086 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Performer [time] => 2015-11-08 17:55:29 [hometext] => For a member of my dance team, for he possesses such charisma and talent [bodytext] => Here you are my fellow performer
How's life on the stage
I wonder if you admire my involvement in such
And the innocence for my age

I adore you from a distance
Longing for our eyes to meet
For your hand in mine
Twirling to a number of our own

You start the beat with a clap of your hands
A subtle smile I give as my castanets click
My hearts thump is in sync with the tempo
We're caught up in a whirlwind, our flamenco

The passion in your eyes sets my soul ablaze
I respond with the dramatic hoist and rustle of my skirt
Our grasp meets once again and I'm airborne
A few more twirls around this stage and we end
Sealing this act with me frozen in your embrace

My dear performer may I have this dance
I ask you silently with wishful eyes
Would give me a few moments of you
A few that would last me a lifetime

My Performer

Here you are my fellow performer
How's life on the stage
I wonder if you admire my involvement in such
And the innocence for my age

I adore you from a distance
Longing for our eyes to meet

You start the beat with a clap of your hands
A subtle smile I give as my castanets click
My hearts thump is in sync with the tempo
We're caught up in a whirlwind, our flamenco

The passion in your eyes sets my soul ablaze

Our grasp meets once again and I'm airborne

Sealing this act with me frozen in your embrace

My dear performer may I have this dance

This is so beautifully written that I can feel the rhythm; hear the rustle of the skirts; the sharp clap of the castanets, and sway to the music of the tale you weave on a bare stage.
Dancing is making love to music; and you have cast a spell that is both delicious and full bodied.Who has not fallen in love with the magic of dance!
A joy to read, again!
