Ghost Waltz

As i walk

as i wait

i see them dance

on the pitter

on the patter

under the streetlamps

watch them waltz

let music consume your world

let their lullaby swallow you whole

graze on their beauty

sway to their beat

they will sing

they will dance

they will look you in the eye

and ask you to prance

with them in the glow

of the showering night

the cold is bitter

but your love is warm

let me watch you waltz

to the bass of the night

let me watch you dance

to the acapella of rain

you look to me

you stretch out your hand

but when the song ends

you whisper goodbye

and disappear.

I know this is really old but I love this! I enjoyed the style youve written this in! I'm also from near abbotsford!

It sounds lie you are talking as if you have the Sight to see the Fey... this really piqued my interest and held it throughout the poem. Witht he dancing and being able to see the dark creatures. Very, very nice.

Thanks, Rachel. You know, I had never quite thought about it quite like that, but I love your perspective on the poem =]
Hmm.. I have the Sight. I like that.
Thanks again =]

Great poem. When the music stops the mysterious dancing partner dissappears into the thin air without nothing left to spare not even for a second dance. The visualization you used within the verses clearly paints the picture of this mystic musical experience perfectly. Great job again. I really enjoyed this poem :)
