Week 50 - Dance

Before I was born
I danced in my mother's womb;
I haven't quit dancing as yet.
I danced about as a child
Laughter and entertainment ensued.

I danced at my wedding,
Only to cry when it ended.
I danced in merriment while expecting
Three children later, I got busy with the day to day.

I didn't dance for a while,
Life seemed to get in the way.
I'm learning to dance once again,
Never to quit until I dance before the throne of grace.
