Colleen’s 2018 Weekly Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge Dance & Command
Colleen’s 2018 Weekly #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge No. 79, Dance & Command #SynonymsOnly
As soon as I saw the words for Colleen’s Poetry Challenge this week, the image of Waltz showed up in an instance. My sister was a Ballroom Dance instructor before she retired. She regularly posts her own dance or other dance demonstration videos on her social media. When she and her dance friends have birthdays, with no exception, they have dance parties.
In this Didactic Cinquain, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinquain I use Waltz for Dance and Tugs for Command.
Waltz
Elegant, graceful
Gliding, twirling, floating
Gentle tugs synchronize steps
Music

Hi Miriam. Very nice words, describes the dance accurately (I think!) I never learnt to dance. Horse riding was my hobby.

Horse riding is a good hobby. We have a horse ring by the lake. They have contest activities very often. Young people would come with their horses to perform different tasks. We joined the parents and other people to watch occasionally.
