The Dance of Joy

Free Yourself !

Stiff we remain

When there is tension

And we retain

A feeling of oppression

That there is pain

To spirit it dampen

Freedom is curtailed

And so is the fun

That is slumber my friend

Because once we wake 

our mood starts to ascend

and we feel like a flake

Having nothing to suspend

in all that we make

Our joints begin to bend

and joy to our own sake

And then we pick up motion

To dance and dance at will

And get into mind's bastion

Where there is no peril

Our stage is a broaden

For viewers foot the bill

Shake and move till the horizon

And life's no more a drill

Tension brings about a coolness in a relationship. We sleep and the next day all seems brighter. We move on and dance in joy in this new found freedom. A glorious piece with awesome rhyming.
