Night dancer by maggiemae

Night dancer

A thought ran through my mind…As my mind is almost empty, that thought ran right through!

But I did work on a poem to tell a story from my childhood and this picture suited it down to the ground. Needs to be seen on the Black to get the right emotion...


Thankful for - I’m very mindful of things that go bump in the night!
Love the photo and the poem but unfortunately I can't read the final verse because it is too dark.

The photo brings to mind the line 'Dance like nobody is watching'

Black does make it pop. Thanks for the suggestion. It is a lovely poem and matches the photo.

Nice photo and poem,

@onewing quite right - that title would have suited well. Final verse is rather dark:
Arabesques and entre chats
chasse and fouettes
No audience but the stars,
Pas de beure and pirouettes
Till the lights came on in a window and a call - are you there!!

You get a feeling of so much joy from this photo...dance as if no one is watching you!

@happypat I would never have danced if anyone was watching, Pat!

@maggiemae Well no unless you were a bit inebriated! 🤣🤣

@happypat Very true, Pat - I have been known to dance on tables!
