    I'm not much of a dancer in ability, but I do enjoy it, and I could relate to the first few stanzas especially. I've never tried this form, but I like that you've strung them, as it makes it more complete, I think.

    I find this form to be stilted and lacking flow,
    not unlike myself when I step on the dance floor.
    I can identify with your last word;
    my date`s limped off the floor `cuz her toes hurt.

      haha probably your poor dancing steps doesn't allow you follow the flow. The last word means they left the building. Thanks for reading and commenting, always appreciated.

      Thank you for reading and commenting. This form was fun for me. I've just started doing structured poetry and lovin it. I'm taking college courses also (after a long separation) and beginning poetry writing and beginning fiction writing are two of my classes this semester. I'd love for you to read more. I'll add you to my favorites and if you do the same we can critique each others writes. Thanks again it is appreciated.

      Thank you Cynthia, this was a pretty hard one to do. I had to pound my head on the table a couple times to come up with the right syllable count. Thanks for reading and commenting. Glad you enjoyed
