Double Dutch



Double Dutch


by Teresa Leggard


smooth, balanced and clean

at first they fit together

so connected it was hard to tell

where one stopped and the other began

floating on air

swaying to perpetual song

stepping lively

rhythm lovely

this tango of nicks and scrapes was

still a beautiful dance


pick up the pace... who skipped a beat?


adjust the tempo

try to get it back, but

tripped by a stone

rhythm blown

tango turns

break dance


their go is over

who's next?
