DancingA Poem by Julie Murphy, Julie Desin & Julie StoddardDancing, I was dancing Beneath the milk-white stars Scattered across the Georgia sky Dancing for thanks Dancing for blissful joy Dancing for starting anew Yes, I was dancing Naked in soul and body Singing to She who turns the wheel And the midnight moon A pale sliver in the inky expanse Looked down on me Oh, I was dancing Dancing for this love So shattered at my feet Broken and twisted as trees Hurricane tossed How I thanked Her for you By dancing Releasing my spirit to join Her stars, my stars Silvery minnows trying to find Shelter from the coming storm I danced for you, though you never knew I was dancing in gratitude and lust Dancing for my freedom And now, I dance no more Though still the silver wheel spins And I still ache to join her dancing And bless and curse my Lady For sending you to me, for dancing Oh, yes, I was dancing Once © 2008 Julie Murphy, Julie Desin & Julie Stoddard |
