The silence complete
A single bright light
The drums pound a tempo
He flies onto the stage
For one wondrous moment
Our Lord of the Dance

The silence complete
Darkness surrounds
The air is electric
As drumming resounds
A single bright light
Appears on the stage
A figure is twirling
Her movement is sage
The drums pound a tempo
Lights flash in reply
The audience breathes
A single soft sigh
He flies onto the stage
The Lord arrives
His movement is fluid
The audience cries
For one wondrous moment
All worries forgot
Good over evil
Is always the plot
Our Lord of the Dance
Gives his all to the crowd
Satisfaction apparent
Applause is so Loud…

My offering to the upcoming retirement of Michael Flatley from dancing. While he will continue to produce his shows and they will continue well into forever, there will never be another Michael Flatley!
ReplyDeleteMichael is a true genius and has given so much to his fans and the world. He has created a dance form that hopefully will live forever. As his fan I feel sad that he will be retiring but look forward to what comes next. An artist spirit such as his cannot be still. Thanks for reading my offering and for your remarks.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, and I have enjoyed his dancing as well.
