Dance Poems
#dance
Dance poems, here you'll find poetry about dance and dancing. Poems about feeling and moving rhythmically to music, from watching ballet to feeling the heat on the dance floor. Poems about sensual partner dancing, creative expression through dance and movement, and letting go and dancing all night.
A Couple Acting Like They Were Dancing
After her class was over, Lisa
looked across the room and saw a
couple acting like they were
dancing in a ballroom
and the blonde holding
on to the stud
looked like the
shocked kid
there.
Then, the shock had turned into that of
curiosity and Lisa
slowly moved herself closer
to touch her clone only
to have the duo
disappear right
before her
own blue
eyes.

Bad Pop Song
I hear the beat start to bump
way too loud for this kind of song
I think the out of tune
is why too autotune
but what do I know?
everyone shakes their hips on the dance floor
feeling alright
drinking till my vision is blurred
she's way too busy checking her phone
in the flashing lights
I see glimpses of her beauty
my date recites everyline
to some cringy pop song
I can't pretend
it sounds like trash to me
she grabs my hands
sways us back and forth
then kisses my lips
guess it...

Pan
From a slender river reed,
a trivial thing,
I have filled the air with magic
and with fire
for women and for men,
and made them hungry, wild,
to set their feet in dance upon the earth
and bend their voices ardently
to sing
and serve your sometime wife
fair robed Mnemosune.
Tell me, father Zeus, far-seeing one,
what have you ever done
with your fabled shield of storm
and with your flashing thunderbolt,
and all your war-won power,
your conquests
and your promiscuities
that rivals this?

I’m not gonna let go
As long as we are dancing-
I love this song!

My summer
I've already made memories
Of magic
Of friends
Of rollercoaster screams
I've already made mistakes
In clubs
While dancing
With my alcohol intake
I've already been through it
I've cried
missed you
Gone through some shit
Had a lot of sunburn
Seems like a bummer
But it's just the start
Of my hot girl summer
Of magic
Of friends
Of rollercoaster screams
I've already made mistakes
In clubs
While dancing
With my alcohol intake
I've already been through it
I've cried
missed you
Gone through some shit
Had a lot of sunburn
Seems like a bummer
But it's just the start
Of my hot girl summer

Whining
Whining is an art form
it's part of who we are
so we born flinging waist
culturally it is innate
our rhythm and flow
our love and passions
skill and experiences
whining makes you feel things
releasing all your emotions
your worries and stressing
it's kissing and caressing
it's sweet tasting gyrations of
salacious intimate content
it's the perfect lover of music
whining make you do things ...

Dancer in Flames
She is a witch, of course. No girl of Autocratic Faith
could spark a light with just her feet, and stamp so hard
on treading-boards that little bones in ankles break
and fire singes thighs, yet all is healed by Monday morn
and no impression left behind to make a theatre owner red.
She is as dead in Father’s eyes as living on His earth.
And so she turns and turning burns again; a mock
of bridal gowns adorns the statuesque supports.
(These are the rich man’s peasant thoughts.)
She’s billed as “Ann, the Daughter of the Son of Thorns,

When I was a poor boy
There was nothing to do
Now that you're my joy
You make me hungry for you
I'm just standing in the middle of the dance floor
Feeling rhythms caress my heart
And we take this chance
To visit the stars
Overwhelm me
With Love

it’s a strange game we play
spinning
spinning
bruising clasped so momentum
doesn’t throw us full pelt
into our own orbits
with our new moons
yours already with names
there was a time
the vacuum of space
sucked away my breath
as you extended me out
to spin and i
scrambled for your arms
trying too hard
to lay my head
to kiss there
between your neck
&your shoulder
where every muscle
would have relaxed at the scent ...

Love's Bloom in Darkness
- Love's Bloom in Darkness -
In the autumn of the cycles of the year, alone, a young girl descended into the dark and lonely realm,
Beneath the realms we know. Into this Hades, her journey did embark… all senses, to so overwhelm!
Lovelier a creature there never was than she, just a child maybe, strong of will and beautiful of face,
Despite her youth: and in mockery of her sparkling eyes. Alive was her heart, all with thrills and grace.
Dreams of hidden kingdoms in her head, with the spaces: not hither nor yonder she saw of those halls,
Where reigns the...

POMO DANCER
Her soul is in the way
She dances
Slow above the fray
And chants
Inside the faintest
Smile
Moving hands with cloth
And guile
There is clapper
There is dirt
Her bare feet
Move in concert
Raising dust
What came before
Feel the drum
Inside the floor
She dances
Slow above the fray
And chants
Inside the faintest
Smile
Moving hands with cloth
And guile
There is clapper
There is dirt
Her bare feet
Move in concert
Raising dust
What came before
Feel the drum
Inside the floor
