31 Days of Poetry – Day 16 – I HOPE YOU DANCE – by Adewale Ajagbe

I saw you today
Twisting your fine warm waist
You moved with so much calm
And poise, making my eyes the
Prisoners of your dance
I was intoxicated with the grace
your curves the sweet symmetry
of your ivory skin

you fell in love with the rhythms
of the song, and plastered your
presence in the midst of the rhymes

you danced gracefully and graciously
it was a long love dance and I watched
in admiration, as you detained the attention
of men, women children and even angels

when you finally stopped dancing
it was hard for your admirers to leave
for the atmosphere was filled with the sweet
smell of the sweat from your pure fine skin

wherever you are, wherever the wind
has taken you to

I hope you dance.
