It's ages since the feet had talked
And kissed the ground with love
The spine shook out the lazy bones,
And took on a healthy curve.
The hands moved to the steady rhythm
The feet were tapping on the ground
The hips, the waist, the thighs , the knees,
With a happy surprise, moved around
It has been years since the body had
Moved to rhythmic Kathak beats.
Years since I felt the euphoria of
Simple 'tatkar' step repeats
A tiny flame of dancing toes
Which had almost ebbed away,
Today on reconnecting with my dance
Has again begun to sway.
