Tribal dancing is akin
To joyful celebration warm,
It lights a spark within the frame,
And keeps us safe from storm.
And all the while there is such fear
Which looms from shadows dark,
To keep us tied to earthly form,
And hides our nature true, embark
On new expression solely
To give creative flair a life,
Fear not that which is not seen,
But bring it out from strife.
The answer to a lonely prayer
Is heard by all who sing,
Continue dancing, and take note
Of al the love you bring.
