Sitting at the table
Just a-talkin’
up a storm
The bracelet on her arm
was so very smart
It let us know
we’ve been sittin’ too long
So she said, with a smile,
“I’ve got to get up and walk around awhile.”
Out the door we stepped
and just like that
the two of us
started dancing
sliding across in rhythm
an old line dance
that we hadn’t done
since God knows when
And all I could think
is that we’ll remember this
years from now
the day that
two of us got up and danced
in the middle of a Saturday afternoon
on a warm November day
all because a bracelet
was smart enough to say
“it’s time to dance!”
💗 Judy and Jeanna’
12 years apart
Raised by the same
woman that danced.
