Let's Dance!

I will take You up now, Beloved,

On that wonderful dance ....

You promised! "

I sometimes forget

that I was created for joy

my mind is too busy

my heart is too heavy

for me to remember

that I have been called to dance

the Sacred dance of life

I was created to smile

to love

to be lifted up

and to lift others up

O Sacred one

untangle my feet from all that ensnares

free my soul

that we might

dance

and that our dancing

might be

contagious!
