Dance, Little Girl


The bus is up and running again, and I made it home just in time to jump aboard!

This week it's being ably driven by the lovely poet Teressa Wellborn of The Chocolate Chip Waffle. Visit Teressa for links to other Poetry Bus poems on this week's Keith Carter photo prompt. Here's mine.




Dance, little girl,

Dance, litle girl,


Whirl and twirl

Faster and faster

Until you master

The music as it flows.


Dance, little girl,

Dance, little girl,


Whirl and twirl

Tighten and tighten

Until you lighten

The chords inside your soul.


Dance, little girl,

Dance, little girl,


How quickly shifts the light;

How sudden comes the night;

How color goes to gray;

How darkness ends the day.


Dance, little girl.

Dance, little girl.


Dance yourself away.
