a poem about a street sweeper dancing with a stray dog for Writer's Cramp

This poem is written for "The Writer's Cramp" . The prompt is to write about a street sweeper and a stray dog.

And so the dance
street sweeper called, "Lance"
Elegant chap
He's nobody's sap

A dog named, "Chance"
wagged his tail at Lance
seeing a waltz
no movement seemed false

Feet moved so light
to light up the night
Paws joined in time
their sweeping sublime

Stray dogs can prance
caught up in a dance
Moonlight throws fire
Their pairing inspires

Sighting so rare
They're quite debonair
Splendid, so right
hearts joined, quite a sight!
