Melancholy day.
Dancing barefoot on the grass,
sheds away the blues.

Swept away
Bellydancer
Mesmerize
with every beat,
music moves
down naked feet,
rises up
to then repeat,
Bellydance
feeling complete.
Sway my hips
from side to side,
exposing
thoughts kept inside.
Pretty veils,
expressive eyes,
feeling free,
no need to hide.
Thrilling sparks
flow through snake arms,
revealing
distinctive charm.
Hypnotize
to then disarm,
silently
without alarm.
Shimmy fast
then lift and drop.
Chest circles
and belly pops.
Always dance,
no need to stop.
keeping joys,
listed on top.
– Grace Y. Estevez-Reddy
Tune in
A record player.
An out of this world journey.
Jazz music and rain.
– Grace Y. Estevez-Reddy
Ballerina
Ballerina take your stance
let them know what you demand.
Gain control within your dance
tiptoeing to the commands.
Ballerina show your strength,
graceful beauty perfect pace.
Stretch your leg to a full length,
hide the pain traced on your face.
Ballerina hold your pose,
looking like a single rose.
All your weight lands on your toes,
putting on a perfect show.
Ballerina win the crowd,
leaping high to spin around.
Final move leads to a bow,
posing gently on the ground.
Ballerina go to sleep,
music box full of stories,
my gems are all yours to keep,
in exchange for your glories.
– Grace Y. Estevez-Reddy
Belly dancing
Hypnotizing moves.
Entrancing like a serpent.
Shimmy to the beats.
– Grace Y. Estevez-Reddy
Presence
Shadow dancer
come guide my stroll,
open a place,
where we can go.
Walk through dry walls,
run up the stairs,
look in my mind,
help my soul dare.
Expose mystique,
life tries to hide,
swept off my feet,
your light unblinds.
Share tunes with me,
my beat is yours,
blend harmony,
our hearts beat pure.
Shadow dancer
please do not fade,
roam free all night,
linger all day.
Essence so clear,
yet filled with spark,
erase all fears,
felt in the dark.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
Replay
Dancing in silence.
Moving to my heartbeat.
Lingering rhythm.
– Grace Y. Estevez-Reddy
