Saturday Dance Memories
Dancing Memories Re-Surface
A TV show brought back the spark
Dancing, showing its finest arts
Bodies swaying, feet moving
A beat, that introduces rhythm
Memories start to unfold
Behold, a dancer on their own
friends poked fun, in a friendly way
He is gone into his world of sway
Invisible protection from outside sources
No girls approached this strange boy
The Saturday dance we all attended
Some there because of peer pressure
On their own, moves were smooth
If others involved, they would lose
Aware of a presence standing before them
Invisible barrier is there it will protect
A girl with eyes so dark and wary
She swayed to the beat, arms inviting
Time stood still, decision needed
Heart missed a beat, barrier was broken
Friends all quiet, enjoying this treat
Applause from friends as the couple joined hands
Dancing as one, shyness was gone
Her eyes never ever left the lonely dancer
The dance it finished, she bowed and held him
This girl became a traveling companion
Years have flown, memories remain
The night a girl, taught a boy how to dance.
