dance

there is a dance,
a dance that requires no music
other than the beating of this heart
birthing the rhythm of blood
like the lullaby you once heard
inside your mother's womb;
remember that song
and let your body dance itself
back to love

there is a dance,
a dance that requires no music
other than the ocean of this breath
swinging her waves back and forth
from me to you and you to me
until fire and water attune;
remember that song
and let our bodies
melt into oneness

there is a dance,
a dance that requires no music
other than the song of this earth
orbiting like a wandering dervish
around the flaming star
lighting up her skies;
remember that song
and become one
with the dance of life.
