The Dance
The Light of the Partner empowers, energizes, elevates.
Through the Grace of the Partner, my humble body
Reflects the grace of timeless motion,
Reveling in the perfection of symmetry.
To music silent or inaudible, every cell
Resonates with the heartbeat of Infinity,
Soaring with the rhythm, becoming the rhythm.
Breathing the eternal flow of Creation
Embracing the boundless support of total space
Ecstatically whirling through blissful joy --
Reverently celebrating the myriad possibilities of movement.
Gratefully, I acknowledge the Partner.
Totally, I live the Dance.
-- Bonnie Stone (DJ Root's mom!)
