Dance Poem by Cecil (cj) Krieger

I can no longer dance the dance
That love had taught me long ago
These days my feet can only shuffle
The dance of love I no longer know
I miss the sweetness of loves first kisses
And the warmth of other lips
These days I have no love to speak of
My lover’s moon has now eclipsed
Now and then I do remember
What love was like when I was young
Although I’ve tried to fined another
The songs I’ve tried remain unsung
There are no steps that I remember
There are no steps I can recall
These days when I try to remember
I cannot move I only fall
I wish I was for just one day
The young man that I once had been
Just so I might dance a little
Just to recall my youth again
