Dancing Modestly

Competing with the beat,
Exchanging smiles of contentment;
Not bothering any entertainment,
Staring eyes in bewilderment.

Talking the language of love,
Swaying arms like of a dove;
Chasing as something to prove,
Remaining modest in every move.

Such dance that changed my heart,
In the depth of that formed a knot;
A promise of future and a sweetheart,
It’s overwhelming that killed me, which was not.

It was old times, now I’m a decade times old.
My old man died before this sickly old woman.
Years and years spent with him,
I can say I have many things to thank Him.
