Unfortunately, I’ve gotten way too old to dance.
My feet just don’t work that way anymore –
Too wooden for the spin.

Yet my heart sings –
Is singing – right now!

You can hear it no matter how far away you are –
You can even feel it without being awake.

Yes, although I no longer dance –
My heart still sings –
In waking dreams that surprise even me.

Dancing without feet –
Deep down in my heart –
I suddenly hear the voice of Jesus out in the wilderness
Fighting Satan by outwitting him –
And being someone who always says “No” to evil.

All God’s power can be hidden inside a silver thimble.

The evil one and all his accomplices run away
When that tiny glittering container of goodness appears.

I’m wearing one right now –
A true symbol of God’s goodness –
It’s filled with tiny eye sparkles –
Which include every bit of love in my life –

Here, in this old, yet still innocently young
Body.
