The Poet and the Dancer


Some time ago,

There was a Dancer.

And there was a Poet.

Both being very different,

Yet they are the same.

He can write the words,

That sweep the women off their feet.

She can dance,

Like she was floating on the stage.

He uses the art of vocabulary,

And she,

The art of dance.

Two very different people,

Who happen to be the same.

Both can be quiet and graceful when needed be.

He can write with passion

And she, can dance to the slow beat.

Both can explode with excitement.

He can write with a frantic and impatient hand,

And she, being ever so bold,

Go and jump in a wild trance.

So, if they would ask,

What the difference is between

The Poet

And the Dancer.

The difference is,

That one relies on words to express,

While the other,

Just needs to move.
