Dance Away Poem by Veronica Thornton

If I could dance with the wind and feel the rain against my skin
I would feel it deep within
the chill from the rain would silently drive me insane
while washing away the pain
the way the water would dance on my skin guided by the wind
left me with no way to pretend
I would want to feel it again and again
there’s just something about the way it feels that lets me know it’s real
at times it just gently caresses my face
while other times the wind molest my body at a slow pace
just when it takes my breath away
it breathes life into me in another way
sometimes I just sit and listen to the calming things it has to say
OOHH….
but if I got a chance to dance with the wind
and feel it right against my skin
guiding my steps from within
moving my feet to our own beat
while the sweat from the clouds causes the rain to cool all the created heat
the experience is surreal I would just love how the wind makes me feel
as we dance an eternity away within an hour on any day that the wind decides
he wants to tickle my insides while we dance with rhythmic steps and glides
while whipping through my hair only focusing on these moments we share
as the wind caresses my face he reminds me that I’m always in first place
as he firmly guides me by the waist and we dance all over any open space
I would wish everyone had a chance to experience the wind’s magical dance.
