~ I dance alone

I dance alone 

     in unworldly spaces    'tween

                a darkly disenchanted spin

          divided in solitaire steps   

             to that place of off key symphonies, 

  once our strides harmoniously rhymed

    rhythm of blues tripped my feather'd shoes

        jazzy druthers sighing in sad tune'd sashays ,

          longing to prance in madness of elegant 

                             cross'd body gilded tones

  want to be your Terpsikhore once again

      feel your empowerment move my soul

         upon amber'd cloud nine perfect skies

'Terpsikhore' is the Muse of song & dancing.

I haven't read any of the reviews, but in light of how many there are, I wonder how many times you've been told that you never dance alone...well, whatever the case, I'm looking you in the eye right now and telling you, you will never dance alone Mrs.R, as long as I'm around. As Elton and Bernie said, sad songs say so much...xo

[Frieda P]

Yes they do, thanks so much Benji, but you do know I tend to lead right? ;-) xo

[kublakhan27]

Oh you have to lead if I'm involved Mrs.R, I'm lucky to be able to walk straight let alone dance with my clumsy feet ;) xo

[Frieda P]

Ha sounds like a plan then....I think we can figure out a way to make it work. ;) xo

[kublakhan27]

Haha Maybe Smirnoff is the answer ;) xo

[Frieda P]

I was thinking 'something' along those lines ;-) x

[kublakhan27]

Haha I'm thinking 'something' along those lines now too ;) x

Woah, this is mind blowing and so sad... You are never dancing alone, Mama F, I am right beside you, taking each step, shedding tears when you do and offering all the love I can... You're never alone.

I am sitting here completely speechless... You keep leaving me speechless now, it's becoming a habit!

Flip flops & all that jazz! xo

Sad romance...
" longing to prance in madness of elegant
cross'd body gilded tones
want to be your Terpsikhore once again"
