We are Dancers

0 Comments/ in Uncategorized / by admin

WE ARE DANCERS YOU AND I, FULL OF GRACE AND STYLE
WE TWIRL AND JIVE AND BOUNCE ABOUT, SMILING ALL THE WHILE
THROUGH EVERY SONG WE’VE STEPPED TO,
THROUGH EVERY MOVE WE’VE MADE
OUR WHOLE LIVES THROUGH WE’VE DANCED,
THE ONE THING THAT HAS STAYED

WE’VE HAD CHANGES A PLENTY, AND NOT ALL OF THEM GOOD
SOMETIMES IT HAS BEEN QUITE TOUGH TO GET IN THE DANCING MOOD
BUT WHEN YOU SMILE DOWN AT ME, AND OFFER ME YOUR HAND
MY FEET JUST GET ALL TWINKLY, IT’S IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO STAND

WE’VE WALTZED WHEN WE ARE MERRY,
WE’VE SLOW DANCED WHEN WE’RE SAD
WE’VE QUICKSTEPPED IN A HURRY,
WE’VE TANGOED WHEN WE’RE MAD
A RHUMBA’S WHAT WE’VE CHOSEN, ON DARK, ROMANTIC NIGHTS
AND WHEN WE FEEL LIKE IT, A FOX TROT JUST DELIGHTS!

OUR DANCE IS MORE THAN JUST A DANCE,
IT’S PLAIN FOR US TO SEE
THAT IT TELLS OUR STORY JUST THE WAY IT’S MEANT TO BE
WE HOLD EACH OTHER UPRIGHT, YOU’LL CATCH ME WHEN I’M THROWN
AS EACH OTHER’S PARTNERS, WE’LL NEVER DANCE ALONE

IN THE DARKEST HOUR, YOU’LL LIFT ME TO THE LIGHT
YOU’LL DANCE WITH ME THROUGHOUT MY DAYS,
THROUGHOUT MY TOUGHEST NIGHT
WE’LL MATCH EACH OTHER’S FOOTSTEPS,
THROUGH LAUGHTER AND THROUGH TEARS
WE’LL KEEP OURSELVES WITH HEADS HELD HIGH
THROUGHOUT THE PASSING YEARS
YES WE ARE DANCERS YOU AND I, FULL OF GRACE AND STYLE
WE’VE DANCED THROUGH EVERY JOURNEY,
THROUGH EVERY PASSING MILE
AND WHEN OUR DANCE IS OVER, FOR ONE DAY IT WILL END
I’LL KNOW MY DANCING PARTNER, WAS TRULY MY BEST FRIEND.

What is a Marriage?

1 Comment/ in Love Lines, Poems / by admin
17 April, 2015

A marriage is a union of one lone wandering heart
Being bonded to another, so they never are apart
No matter where they travel, even the furthest shore
The distance makes them stronger than they ever were before

A marriage is a promise, a giving and a gift
Something that is constant as the pools of life, they shift
A sacred, special secret of a true love that you share
A knowing that the other will always be right there

A marriage is a lifetime of being with the one
It picks you up and carries you when you think you might be done
It’s standing up together, and facing this strange life
It’s saying ‘Hello husband’ it’s saying ‘Hello wife’

A marriage is a light that never has a doubt
Even through the darkest day, it never will go out
It’s a rock to cling to, it’s an anchor in the storm |
A cuddle when you need one most, it’s brave and kind and warm

A marriage is a muscle, it needs work to stay strong
It will make allowances for the things that you get wrong
But what it does best is that it sees the real you
And makes you smile and want to shout ‘I do, I do, I do!’
