A Step Half Made

As lightening shone and thunder blew
I danced the dance that dancers do
 
They danced it back and asked if I
Would mind them dancing through the night
 
I thought no harm could come of this
Besides, such company I’ve missed
 
Thus, on we danced so unaware
That torrent rains beyond compare
 
Fell down in floods on higher ground
And like a wall came crashing down
 
Then somewhere in a step half made
The dance I danced was washed away
 
Now all that’s left for you to see:
Remains of the catastrophe
 
Oh, hopefully from this you’ll know
Don’t ever dance when thunder blows
