The Dance

We  spin and twirl, arms embraced

    Cheek to cheek, face to face

Stepping to the rhythms, holding close

     To the tunes of endless songs

You give a nod, I turn a toe

     We bow, catch hands

We feel our bodies close, skin to skin

     Hearts in tune arm in arm

Our shadows dancing on the wall

     Entwined together one to one

Dancing with your eyes over mine

      Doing the tango, the waltz

Your hand on my waist, mine on your shoulder

     Holding close, dancing tenderly

To the flowing rhythms of the song

     Dance, my handsome man

Move slowly with me in the dark, hold me close

     Let my flesh touch yours

Forever locked in this moment, this embrace

     Your breath against my neck

Twirling around, feet barely touching the ground

    Floating on a cloud

As we sway together in the midnight hour

    The violins slowly fade

Hold me, twirl me one more time

    Before the evening ends

What a beautiful sensual poem my friend. Well done.

[Tate Morgan]

There is an elegance to this piece as it flows and sways to the music i hear in my head. I think it is a beautiful rendition I really like the type set

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

The rhythm of love is a timeless ballad... really sweet and romantic.

[Tom Benson]

You've captured these moments in time with ease Anne. A fine piece of writing supported by well scripted imagery throughout. The graphic gives a 'heads-up' but the writing steals the show.
