KODESH L' ADONAI

Holy Unto The Lord

Dance

      dance    dance   

           Dance          dance 

Joanne's snowy garlanded hair

and white gown

     flow

with music

movement and grace

Her gestures      Holy

the Spirit

         internal

Arms raised high in praise

her tambourine

     tinkles

its streaming

silvery ribbon strands

     glisten

          in the Sanctuary

She leaps     she bows

visage, enraptured

her eyes seem to see

what her heart

sees            Wondrous

her Bridegroom

Yeshua…

Once I danced

for The Lord, she says

I could no longer dance

in a secular manner

so we watch, prayerful

She whirls

     she worships

        in the     Dance Sacred

the dance         dance

           Dance

                      Dance…
