when I dance, I am no longer thinking and it is better than a drug

Music heals the soul indeed. Lisa you are soaring in this piece, I can feel your lightness of being and the beautiful soft emotions that music only brings. It brought a smile to my face. It also reminded me of this I think you’ve read it already :)

no scent, or touch or thought to break my back ...I can so feel this.

You dance so beautifully dear friend. xxx

they say that god created the world from the vibration of his voice on the waters – if there is any magic left in the world it is to be found in music. I truly believe that. a beautiful song ma cherie!

Wow, Lovely. I think it actually does release a drug, some kind of endorphin. I can’t believe it happened to you too, maybe it’s a Melbourne thing ;-). Only once in my life have I danced until my feet bled and that was in Melbourne in 1989, you reminded me and now I many have to write about it… thanks Lisa x

I love to ‘dance’, i say ‘dance’ in that it is more a swing, sway, whirling dervish, twist, gyrate, a ‘get down and get up again’ release that transports my body and mind to a nowhere place.
...I close my eyes and I am there (wherever there is)
I love to ‘dance’
A sigh and beautiful desciption of the dance Lisa…sandra x

I am so there with you..Ok here goes..
After the one day and a half of being in your glorious cave.. we do the dressup thing and put make up on infront of each other while you sip a wine and I sip a tea.. then we get to looking so dang hot.. as I will come in your winter and wear my boots and my black jeans
with some damn fine ass sexy top.. and I know anything you wear is hot.. so then we get in the car and go out to dinner.. the place we go to always has great service and very cute boys..then we flirt and then we go dancing.. and dancing and more dancing.. cause like you said…
_on a crowded floor there is nobody at all
no scent, touch or thought to break my back
only a blood surging beat and me

I dance
until my feet bleed
there is no pain when the mind has joined the swaying body_
Only we will have each other and we will not ever be alone..
yep.. oxooxxoxoxoxoxxo

I felt especially this one Lisa. I love music. And let me tell you I am a diabetic, with arthritis, ashma (physical activity will bring it on), carpal tunnel, neuropathic nerve damage and so forth, but when they turn on music and I am especially in a party, I will start dancing until there is not tomorrow. The pain? What pain? Oh, yes, tomorrow, pain killers. But, that will be tomorrow and tomorrow is another day. lol But this one I was enjoying reading every word of it. Great one. Loved it. Iris

ahem

yeah you said it… dance like no-ones watching right?

there is song “music is the answer .. to your problems” .. i LOVE to dance, love your words x

and here it is for you xo

oh. how i know this zone:). beat beat heart heart.. no matter that it can kill me . as it has done sometimes the day after:).. gorgeous writing

i’m no dancer any more with my bad bones but certain songs get you moving no matter what….let’s face it pretty much everyone drags out to something at some point…..

ooh i’ve never clicked this ‘add a comment’ button up here, i always just tack my comments on the end down there, so i’m not sure where this will end up .. but, YES ! we must go dancing one night, would love that ! xo

hmmm the comment just ended up down the bottom here anyway. keep dancing, it’s fabulous for the endorphins x

another
from the same band…lol…..

What a georgeous uplifting piece of work and so true ” waking my body into its holistic divinity”...its like the beat of the music comnencts you to the beatof the earth …beautifully writting about an expereince that I agree can be almost spiritual . Here’s a little something that always makes me leap around the house or justt dance in my chair …am not normally into remixes but love this :)xo

I never been much of a dancer, but I enjoy moving around the floor in my disrhythmed feet. LOL Wonderfully written.

Just reading the poem I knew you felt music, see the beat, and taste the rhythm. When a good song comes on I’m on the living room floor and most of the time my grand daughter joins me in dance. Teaching her to dance whether anyone is watching or not….who cares
A wonderfully moving write….encore

music is my muse. what a horrible dreadful world it would be without it. gorgeous story.

you have such a wonderful way with words…. A natural poet, I’m still mulling over the words in the comment you wrote me where you said ‘Youve coloured me happy’.... so beautiful, even your comments are filled with soul and poetic. :)

yes indeed.
music, like poetry, is the voice of life itself. there is nothing at all like having the world literally melt away, as you become one with music.
dance on, beauty.
xo

You had me at “when I dance”! Beautiful, I almost felt the music as I read!

love the song…naughty but nice.beat ....naughty is good on the dance floor. I am also an 80’s disco queen myself but can mix it up too :)..and speaking of mixing it up….....just having small break at the moment but am at my parents place helping them set up for my father’s name day and am bopping along to macedonian(balkan) folk music …not quite the same spiritual experience we are speaking off but the body cant help but move to those drum beats and clarinet rythms none the less :)))))..

I know that dance!! This has put a smile on my face. You are so happy….so lovely. xoxo

yep… just how i used to feel out on a crowded dance floor..many moons ago.. now it’s all done in my living room…...... thanks for the memory….....xox…...b

Reading this made me realise that I haven’t danced for about five years…..time to turn up the music and dance…. xxx

Indeed, no pain when all vibration is in harmony. Great read!

Lovely happy write Lisa :) I could feel it myself, though my dancing is best done without an audience LOL

This is a sweet write Lisa…the beat..the flow of the poem…awesome.

Oh so beautiful :) Can I dance with you? We could giggle like little girls and do pirouettes :)
This made me smile….you lovely sweet lady xxoo

A whistful dance to lose ourselves in a new music, eyes closed, and late night bodies. Wonderful Lisa x

Oh, Darling Lisa, I danced to your words…beautiful!!!!!!! xoxoxoox

Beautiful way to feel…wonderfully expressed.

What a great piece of verse. Good job, Lisa

I love to dance Lisa

LOL…I won’t ask why but I am glad you were able to..you are such a fun gal.

THAT PERFECT ZEN-DANCE ZONE…..OBLIVIOUS OF EGO…FREE!!!!! XO

Ohhhh I lurve to dance….a do very little of it these days. I do remember though dancing on a particular amazing Friday night…That dance is to be repeated me thinks ;O) x ….To let our bodies forget the chatter in our head and be the vehicle for the music. Dancing is a celebration of the tribal connection we have with each other me thinks…. We all belong to one tribe even though we wear different skins… You have reminded me how the beat of life can be a healing music….thankyou for putting your red dancing shoes on…MWah XOXOXOXO

enrapt in music or hands in clay – the two places I am truely me… you have voiced it so well. How is takes over, enters and fills oneself… the self expression just flows out. beautiful place and piece of writing. x

Absolutely beautiful writing here, Lisa! Love it! So descriptive!

I’d love to stand in the corner and watch you dance babe….......I felt these words in my bones…..
Hit the Floor :)
xoxox

this is so true!!!!! when i am one with the beat it’s just me and it!
dancing makes you feel so gooood, it’s so therapeutic hehe
;-) xox

There’s only pain when you see the video of the crazy dancing lady the next day. ;)
I think everybody falls into that feeling. If they never have, they should.

dancing is truly a spirtual experience…beautiful writing

When it comes to dancing…...you’ve captured in words what I feel when I dance! I LOVE THIS!!! Bravo Lisa…...
