Dance – Décima

Morning Birds

When evening comes I rest my hand
and trust He takes it in some way.
It’s one more ending of a day,
a time to dream and understand,
but if I don’t, it’s all still grand.
Before the dawn comes calming night
then starts the song I see as light.
I’ve rarely felt the urge to dance,
but often swayed as in a trance.
One day I’ll dance and get it right.

Ronovan Hester offers the rhyme word “dance” to be used in the D line of a décima having rhyme pattern ABBAACCDDC for this week’s challenge.

  4. Beautiful poem I enjoyed reading and especially the last lines felt so true for me too –

    I’ve rarely felt the urge to dance,
    but often swayed as in a trance.
    One day I’ll dance and get it right.
