I can dance her restless feet said
and she moved in circles as she
bounced in a contented way
not so much as to show others
but to find her own equilibrium.
I'm a monkey her bouncing black hair said
as she whirled back and forth
in her monkey dance
being kind to the elderly
by flaunting her youth with abandon
the way it should be
I'm a monkey her shrugging shoulders said
and her twirling
made her so.
You can love me her deep brown eyes said
there is nothing more to life
then to just take a few minutes
to dance.
