They were not the greatest dancers…
Their bodies didn’t always move the way they wanted them to move…
and in all the years they’ve danced together…their dancing has not improved..
When the music starts to play…they try moving with the beat
but she is always one step behind…and he has two left feet.
During slow songs they hold each other…they rock side-to-side and sway
but despite their total lack of rhythm…they love dancing together anyway.
If you watch their smiles…not their feet…while they dance…
you’ll see how each face glows….
even though they look a little awkward……and step on one another’s toes.
It doesn’t matter to them, however, how clumsy they may look…
or how many people with smirks are glancing….
because they know when two hearts are connected….
it’s their souls that do the dancing.
They are smiling
not because their feet on the dance floor can’t seem to find their way…
they’re smiling
knowing inside their souls
dance a beautiful ballet.
