The Dance

Success is a dancer

To be her partner

You have to be a willing learner

Who will invest time in practice

Who has stories sewn to the fabric

Gut laced to the soles

Grit… marking the lines of the face.

Her dance steps are varied

Thrusting, turning, twirling… never harried

She tasks the ability of one to keep up

Here the trap is laid for one who can’t buck up

Moving on…she never stops

Taking on the next ward, waiting to see if he can keep up

For the reward is only for the indulgent

Who can master her steps and enjoy the dance
