Will You Dance With Me Underneath Starlight

Feeling the softness of a summer night
Embraced in velvet darkness of the sky
Heart soars as imagination takes flight
Passions come to life with all it implies

Man with lover’s heart walks across the sand
His body’s wrapped within brilliant moonbeams
A knowing smile that says he understands
Flashing a sparkle in his eyes that gleams

He kisses me with heat of burning fires
Pulling me close against his manly chest
His touch is all my yearning soul requires
I hope he fills my lonely heart’s request

Will you share this dream until first dawn’s light
Will you dance with me underneath starlight

Karen...of course...what man would not dance
with you under starlight?

I did have the clone taught how to dance..
So...jump off your Dragon and shuffle away..

For the night is young and the clone awaits..

Beautifully written lady...very sensual
as you can do so well..

I'm winking and smiling at this one.  I have an affinity for moonbeams and starlight, and this is a tasty warm romantic sensual poem.

Karen, Where can I sign up for lessons? This makes my attempt look pretty amateurish. Very stirring and romantic. Cheryl

A beautiful love poem, Karen...and a sonnet in it's finest form.
Very excellent, Karen!
I also like your new photo.
