A Half Dance

“Half of a dance is better than no dance!”
I might have said, that first day, we spoke.
And I held her from when she began,
to the moment the close embrace broke.

I noticed her's, brown, & then mine shut, glued
her image locked within.
For a second, I peeped, her smile was all, I saw
A picture sealed in my forever file.

I was rebellious; a heart of stone,
But her voice was tickling my every bone.
I wouldn’t laugh but my heart would blush
He broke out into a warm love rush

I was fighting him to calm down.
She was calling him out with her eyes.
I was resisting with all my brawn,
But he broke out with ecstatic sighs.

Half a moment is better than no moment
Half a chance, than no chance
It left me stunned; alone on the dance floor.
undone
 

Old Pots:

Old pots burn slow
and worn hearts have no glow.
I’ve had too much hurt and strain
To bear pain again.

Old pots are coated with soot
and hearts grow to be as dark.
Love is no longer the heart’s root,
It’s like a fire that lost its spark.

Old pots can’t hold water
And hearts see nothing to seek after
The pots slowly lose all they hold
And hearts lose all they behold.

Old pots have no use
And hearts, no power to muse;
They mope around tattered and torn with heads aground
And the pots, battered and worn, grimly bound.

Old pots carry many stories
And hearts are very wise
Old pots are where most flies flock,
and hearts are where ships must dock.
