-- May the Dance Never End --
John Herlihy
Such beauty in movement,
That the artful mind brings.
Poetry drawn from motion,
That the noble heart sings.
Arms reaching from trees,
Fingers limping as leaves.
The open mouth did sigh,
As heart and soul will fly.
The verses move as wave,
Supple, subtle, and brave.
The dance simply sublime,
Vision treasured as mine.
May the dancer never land,
May the dance never end.
