Time Change

Posted on by Leonas Lines

Spring ahead tonight!
Leave winter’s timing behind you.
Leap forward one hour!
Loss of sleep gains more daylight.
Hibernation’s over at last!

Admonition

Posted on by Leonas Lines

Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.
Stay within your newly found locus.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Don’t listen to all their hocus.
Remember when tempted, the hard battle that you fought.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.

DANCE Acrostic

Posted on by Leonas Lines

This DANCE Acrostic is an original I wrote for the Praise and Worship Dance Team that I am on.  It really is our Mission Statement.
We do monthly presentations at Retirement Homes, Churches, and other Events.  Our dance is a mix of Jewish Folk Dance, C&W Line Dance, Interpretive Worship Dance, and other sources.  Our music is Contemporary Christian with some Old Hymns–but often we do
incorporate some modern Holiday music too.  (Just last Christmas I had fun dressing up as Frosty the Snowman and dancing around!)
Our desire is to create a fun atmosphere where we can share the love of God through dance and music.  We often use tambourines and worship flags in our presentations also.  I invite you to visit our website at: www.eomdt.org  for more information and photos.
