“……such bright clean hugs for sleep dancing!”
So now did all friends stretch and breathe in space
Of High Room so wide and clean and glinting all to shine
All in blending stripes as Cuddles patted Donkey brow in trace
Of missing mommy now flowing twixt the two like twine.
“Ah, shush, shush, “did yawn out Ugly Bird in lullaby time.
“Spy ye now Mr. Jitters tipping and toeing in waltz so slow!”
Croaked Crow: “Now ye learns secret of King’s dance so sublime.
“What began as shepherding jitter re-forms for worship so!”

“Now ye learns secret of King’s dance so sublime.
“What began as shepherding jitter re-forms for worship so!”…love this…the king’s dance..instead of for the king, with the king in worship…

Well, Claudia, I admit I was inspired by the Psalms where King David danced before the Lord in worship. So pleased you specifically enjoyed those lines in this post. Liturgical dance has always been one of my favorite parts of traditional Judaic worship forms.
Jun 02, 2012 @ 10:24:23
Your poems have numerous fans, Rose! You are very creative. I love how your inspiration comes from the Bible!
Jun 02, 2012 @ 22:21:47
Thank you so much for your supportive comment here today, Danielle! Bless you!
Jun 02, 2012 @ 10:44:43
Awww…Rose, I love how you incorporated Jitters and Cuddles into this “dance.” I didn’t expect to see Cuddles, so it was a nice surprise. Thank you for including her! Usually after reading your poems, I feel a sense of contentment and peace, followed by a “sigh.” xo
Jun 02, 2012 @ 22:23:03
So wonderful to think of leaving you in peace, Lauren! You deserve it so very much! You will see Cuddles many times more! There will be some “touch and go” times, but the Light always shines through in the end!
Jun 02, 2012 @ 22:25:58
Thanks, Rose, and it’s reassuring to know that the Light will shine always in the end! Have a great weekend! 🙂
Jun 02, 2012 @ 22:26:47
Have a super-bright weekend, yourself!
Jun 02, 2012 @ 11:32:12
Awesome Rose, I love this! Very creative with the “dance” 🙂
Jitters and Cuddles danced round the fire
Spirits so high in praise
Dance and sing, praises to the Most High
Sing you critters, sing you others
Praise the One with loud voice
Hold nothing back, give your all
Raise your paws, your hands and wings
Praise Him now, praise Him always
Jitters critters and Cuddles, praising the One
The Only One, Join in now, join in!
Jun 02, 2012 @ 22:24:01
Aw, Greg, you had me breaking about the banjo on that one! Great addition here in our dance of praise!

Oh I am now Dancing also Granbee…. “Dance, Dance, where ever you may be, I AM the Lord of Dance said He. And I will lead you All where ever you may be.. For I AM the Lord of the Dance said He…
Love to you Granbee.. I needed to remember that Song tonight.. Hugs to you xx 🙂
Jun 05, 2012 @ 04:24:06
Sue, that is the exact song that kept sifting through my head as I wrote this post! See how we are connected? Hooray! Hugs back at you!
Jun 04, 2012 @ 14:17:51
Indeed and AMEN!! “……such bright clean hugs for sleep dancing!”
Jun 05, 2012 @ 04:24:32
The best-est sleepsies weez ever has, right?
Jun 05, 2012 @ 20:30:39
Granbee, this made me think of how we mostly think of worshipping for the King but I like to worship with Him, as the heavens open and rejoice. Each and every second and day a dance should be danced because a soul is saved, and the kingdom of Heaven expands it’s glory!
It does not matter the clothing the critters wear or how slow or fast they go but that they all sing the one song of praise and go wherever the savior goes.. Praises to a God who loves us all.
“What began as shepherding jitter re-forms for worship so!” – No matter how lost we are but if we just keep our eyes to Christ. No matter our fears, through worship we are delivered because we trust Him. Amen
A Woman After God’s Own Heart ♥

Yes, let us rejoice and be glad IN Him and WITH Him in song and dance for all His Grace and Love showered upon us!
Jun 07, 2012 @ 09:20:39
“…the King’s dance so sublime.” Wonderful granbee! As always, your words are filled with enchantment. God bless, good friend!
Jun 08, 2012 @ 05:26:47
Praying for you guys and so very pleased you are enchanted with these words, for they gladden my heart, also! Let us dance with Our King together in spirit!
Jun 07, 2012 @ 10:12:30
These are the words I am missing from your site my friend, as always great flow…
Jun 08, 2012 @ 05:27:30
So very pleased you found the right words here today, Willof! Let us dance with Our King together in spirit!
Jun 08, 2012 @ 18:29:02
You dance at your keyboard, don’t you? 🙂
Jun 09, 2012 @ 03:21:58
You got it, Sistah!
Jun 09, 2012 @ 02:14:34
Rose! We dance again! If I can`t dance, it`s not my revolution or religion. Thank you for this dance. You got moves!
Jun 09, 2012 @ 03:23:54
Hey, Peter, I may be old but I am not dead! Joi de vivre! King David, “a man after God’s own heart”, danced in countless worship services and left us the incredible gift of the Psalms!

Croaked Crow: “Now ye learns secret of King’s dance so sublime.
“What began as shepherding jitter re-forms for worship so!”
This brings joy and a smile after a very rough week of loss. Thank you, granbee! 😀
Jun 16, 2012 @ 22:34:38
So very honored and pleased to be able to bring a little joy and a smile into your difficult week, sister Becca! Our King is always ready to embrace us in worshipful dance with Him!
Jun 26, 2012 @ 04:48:27
I enjoy the dialogue and the back and forth of characters… 🙂
Jun 26, 2012 @ 05:35:02
I find myself really getting a kick out of these characters conversations, myself! So glad you do, as well, EOF!
