It's a step when you walk with your arms together…
It's a hobby when you start walking with people you do and don't know…
It's a dance when you start walking with the music….
It's an art when you get the meaning of it…
It's a way of life once you understand it…
It's a tango.
--Joel Smith, Age 14, July 2002, Polly's Grandson, after dancing tango about six months.

good poem but a bit short!
it gives a great impression of the tango.
I have just begun tango lessons in January '08, a year after this wonderful poem was published. And I'm a hobbyist on my way to making Tango a way of life. My deep thanks to this wise young poet for spelling it out.
