Moonlit Shadow Dance I saw you dart behind that tree I know you’re there . . . it’s me! Please come out, come out and play the moon is here and means to stay It’s time, it’s time again tonight to share the darkness and the light I know we’re only shadows now but still, I think we touch somehow So take my hand and come along we’ll ask poor-will to sing a song And watch us dance across the lawn a moonlit shadow dance ‘till dawn The night air feels so crisp and thin It will seem like dancing skin to skin And we’ll dream away our troubled souls shadow dancing as the moonlight glows Krawdad 060201 |

Another fabulous poem, Krawdad, maybe even one of your best that I've been in to read. Really enjoyed the romance of it. |

I know we’re only shadows now but still, I think we touch somehow ============================ And watch us dance across the lawn a moonlit shadow dance ‘till dawn The night air feels so crisp and thin It will seem like dancing skin to skin And we’ll dream away our troubled souls shadow dancing as the moonlight glows ============================ what a very cool poem ...

Wonderful imagery and flow with this. Nicely penned. Poeminister "At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet." -Plato |

"Neglecting to respond" and guilty as charged. Apologies. Been away a bit. Logan, Interloper, Tiersdin, serenity, VAS, Janet Marie, Poeminister, 1slick_lady, Paula Finn, JLR, Appreciate that you stoped by and glad that you enjoyed this. It was written to answer a challenge, to get me out of a funk. It worked. And it was fun to do. Makes me wonder, when and if folks on this site ever get together in the flesh, what will they all do? Dancing anyone? "As soon as the generals and the politicos can predict the motions of your mind, lose it." Wendell Berry |
