&quot;Our truest responsibility to the irrationality of the world is to paint or sing or write, for only in such response do we find the truth.&quot;<br /> - Madeleine L&#039;Engle

He is a dancer
With a dazzling smile
She’s a romancer
A girl with style
And it melts her heart
Every time he looks at her
They never want to be apart
Of that, they are both sure
Across the floor, he bounds and leaps
Jumps, twirls, and pirouettes
And in the stands, her heart skips beats
She’s delighted that they ever met
And afterwards they take a walk
The moon shining high above
The two of them just talk and talk
And glow with neverending love
But the story ends here sadly,
A dream and nothing more,
Of a girl who wishes badly
For love on the dance floor

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
