Dance of Life
Here is Maiion on the left and Koefor on the right. They are dancing.
Human perspective cannot see their dance.
Flora dances differently than fauna.
A fauna dance lasts a few minutes. But even an all night dance is nothing compared to a flora that dances all year. They dance so slowly that their movements are barely noticeable during an hour or a day.
They are moving all the time. Growing. Twisting. Turning. Changing color.
Life for them is a dance and they dance for life.
We find their dance boring. They think our dance is foolish.
We use energy to dance. They collect energy while they dance.
When they finish collecting energy and their dance is ending,
they dress up in colorful costumes to beautify the world
to thank life before they plunge to the earth to provide nourishment
for next year’s dance.


Very beautiful!
Dance for life; people do it still here in Africa, using leaves and grass to cover their bodies, to become other than human beings, and to ask the Spirits to send rain and strenght for next agriculture season.
I’m sure it’s beautiful, exciting, comforting and strengthens their resolve. I suspect that the rain is unimpressed.
