Keep on Dancing
Balanced and on an even keel
Confidence returned once more
She possessed unmistakable duende
as she danced powerfully across the floor
The volume of the music
was turned way up high
It was impossible to keep her still
Her only limit was the sky

Thanks Beverly! ☺️
our bodies are not meant for stillness
Exactly! Thanks for reading. 🙂
I once remember a little five year old girl who danced that way while her daddy played in a music group! Very nice work!
Ahh, must be your daughter Dwight? ❤️
No, I have not daughters. It was a cute little girl who came to a coffee shop I used to go to on Friday nights to hear the music! ThanksI I do have four sweet granddaughters!
Aww, sweet 💕☺️
Great energy and fire in this Christine — loved it!
Oh thanks so much Rob! 🙂👍💕
Thanks VJ! I’m happy to read that! ☺️👍
Beautiful and inspiring
Thank you Sadje. It reminded me of that movie. I can’t remember the name but I think Irene Cara was the dancer.
You’re welcome 😉
Ohhh, Excellent!!
You’re so sweet ❤️☺️
Well, I have a dark side too…bittersweet, I guess 🙂 <3
I just let myself go there 🤣
That’s healthier than stuffing it.
👍💕

I like the steady rhythm and rhymes in your quadrille, Christine, and the image you paint of someone completely lost in the music. That’s two quadrilles about dancing in a row!
Thanks so much Kim. 💕
Yes I read the other one about dancing too. It brought back memories 🙂
