Will you dance with me
while I am young and naive,
just learning the steps?
Would you dance with me
as I mature, changing songs
and the rhythms too?
Could you dance with me
when I'm old, feeble, and gray
too weak to keep up?
Do not mourn my death
for the Lord of the Dance
now dances with me.

Very nice!
When my Grandma Vivian died on 2/25/10, what I said to my 10 year old was, "She's dancing with Jesus now." (Having been wheelchair bound for the last year, and having used a walker for 7 years before that.) In her prime years she was an amazing square dancer. Your haiku set really touched me.
Beautiful! The first one really set the tone; love it.
Excellent, as always!
Brilliant!
just beautiful...just dance from now through eternity;)
This is beautiful!

Beautifully done - and I'm old enough to appreciate it!
Cheers!

I feel like I'm still just learning the steps. Great job!
Love the "Lord of the Dance" reference! Nicely done!
Ah, the dance will go on long after the dancers stop...
