Love of Dance

When love comes dancing
Down the street
And grabs your arms
With itchy feet

That won't stay still
She spins you round
A lightness lifts you
From the ground

When love's insistence 
Captures you
No sitting out
Too shy won't do

For every part
Will want to move
An inner rush
To feel the groove

To love's broad smile
You have to face
Her eyes are locked
A new found grace

A fleet of foot
You thought had lost
It's rhythm found
No counting cost

For love is free
Her spirit true
A human, full
She'll make of you

So when she breezes
Through your doors
The worldy rules
Of dance, ignores

In silence.
No clamour for applause 
Just you and me
We spin, then pause

Just held so closely
As if in trance
We recognise
This love of dance
