Dance Your Essence

By Savannah Skye

Dance to see yourself Dance be yourself Dance to free yourself... Dance your essence... Dance your essence Back into your presence Around you spin Back to life's begin Dance your essence Beyond your presence Close your eyes As your body sighs Dance your essence Away from your presence Let go of your fears Watch them disappear Dance your essence Within your presence Spin and twirl Into a spiraling whirl Dance your essence Outside your presence Let go of your being With your 3rd eye seeing Dance your essence Trance into your presence Where all are one Like when life begun Dance your essence Right into your presence Feel yourself transcend Beyond your mind's end Dance your essence Into your presence Trance to become one With the whole of the sum Dance your essence   PHOTO CREDIT: Photo of Shira by Pixie Vision, Glendale, California.
