                        dancer

Poem:

At a safe distance

The crowd rims the room

Content to whisper

Going no where and doing nothing

He beckons me

One timid step on that stage

To dance in the empty places

To fill them with beauty and song

Tentatively at first

And the music finally roared

Loud enough to drown out the voices

He beckons me

If I look at the crowd

I stumble and lose my balance

But if I dance

They fade into backdrop

He beckons me

So I will dance in the Light

And pray that

The Lord of the Dance

Will shake my fear

So that together we may

Fill the empty places with Beauty and Light.
