Salsa Lessons

We will Fred and Ginger across the floor
Spirits rising in, falling in, gliding in
Unison, but first we practice
Lessons.

Rules to follow
Pre-conceptions to overcome
Prejudices to avoid
This will not be as 
We imagined, much better
Than we can concieve

Choose the field
Prepare the tools
Count the inventory
Guard your health
Move foreward, move back
In the Salsa of joy
Baha is awaiting
The contest to begin

Give the message
Then love them until
They respond or reject
The mighty dancers have entered
The field of wallflowers
The hesitant, the unknowers of the caves.

Storms will blow and rip
Attempting to sweep us off our feet
We dance on with fragrance
The music sweet, the rhythm progressive

Closer we approach the sounds
Becoming the mystic song
Forgetting that we are two
Glory is in the effort

Results are in God's hands
Loving the nearness
Forgetting who we are
But that person who loves the other. 
That is enough in the dance
