Dance for You and No One Else

A compilation of haikus expressing the passion about dancing and not about trying to be in the center front in the choreography.

What is dance to you?

Is it for recognition?

Is it your passion?

 

Do what you would want

It should be about passion

Not about status

 

Do you dance for you?

Or is it because you can?

Can you live without?

 

Dance is what I love

Every moment in movement

Takes my breath away

 

No matter how hard

I will always stick to it

Even when I cried

 

My passion for dance

Nothing can take it away

Not even anger

 

What do you think?

Dance for you and not for them

For dance is greater

Author's Note

Since it is a compilation of haiku's, the grammar is a bit off to fit the 5-7-5 syllable rule of a haiku.

Reviews

[Lloyd Frieson-Small]

I have never been one for haiku's and the textbook styles of poetry, but you conveyed your message well and above all, you recognized and emphasized the importance of passion. Kudos.

[Alys Jackson]

It's got a great rhythm and keeps the flow going. Great subject too.

[Michael G.]

Interesting write... well formed, and well expressed.
