LIFE Giver,
Thank you for dancing.
Mother swaying back and forth, infant to her chest.
Toddler bouncing up and down hearing music first.
Children holding hands circling round, falling, laughing again and again.
Teens swaying bodies close or wild, fun loving.
Young adults learning new moves, swing, charleston,- I don't know the new ones.
Couples whispering as they sway, close and in love.
Wedding dance with daughter/father, son/mother - my favorite ones of all.
Couples old surprising us with finness from years of practice.
And ones so old they cannot do what they love to do...watching, remembering,
delighting as others carry on.
Russians kicking high.
Strong ballet capturing our vision.
Africans chanting as they move, strong and confident.
You know what I'm thinking, Lord. Why don't we do it more?
And, how could religion ever have thought it was evil?
Thank you, God, for wanting our joy.
