The Dunham Dance

Conga resounds
Loudly,
Haitian sounds
Ground me,
Modern moves
Grooves
Drive me
To dance

Rhythmic explosion
Ebb and flow
Of ocean,
Lulling me
Rocking me
Tenderly,
Calm state of being
Seeing
Receiving
Changes
Arranged
To
New
Waves of dance,
Dance

To sound
Drums that pound,
Permeate airwaves
Of mother earth,
Sensing our connection
Absorbing her reflection
Of light, into body mind and soul
Offer ode of gratitude
For her fortitude
Creates opportunity to move
Effortlessly
Yet
Gracefully
Powerfully,
Into
New dimensions of possibility,
As we
Dance
Dance!
Dance!
Dance!
Dance!
