Chair Dancer Poem by John A'Hern

Invisibility a wonderful thing
Move amongst the crowd
Body is lost in dance moves
All on your own chair dancer of old
Smile and nod, smiles returned
A skill inherited from whom?
Eyes flash you look away?
Shy? do not really care
All on your own despite the crowd
The one you will love hides
Where are you my trusted friend?
A touch a bow can you really see me?
A shrug of the shoulders
A feeling like no other
Falling in love, maybe
Swirl and turn it is a game
Eyes watch your every move
Lost in an image, do I know you
Dancing stops you turn away
A silent signal transferred
Imagination joins the scene
Silent Signals sent out
Image of Bodies touching
Feel as if you want to pass out
Walk away from your partner the chair
