THE DANCE OF LIFE

              

You dance then you realize you were not alive

You were in a world where emotions never thrive

Dance to flee this awful nightmare

Dance to show how much you care

About those who love but never dare

To make people around the world share

Feelings without which the heart is bare

You never see the moon shine if sunrays

Don’t embrace the moon in a moonlit night

Dance let the world of Man feel right,

 Dance let them never try to forget

There’s soul beneath the flesh

Dance to make it live and refresh

Dance to revive your eyes’ glow

Dance now, better now than too late

Life doesn’t wait for those who wait

To learn the steps of dancing right

Love and peace for all is what you should enthrone

Otherwise in your world death will ascend the throne.
