Skin glistens in the heat Hips sway to the seductive samba beat Laughs fill the air, couples dance Their eyes locked in a lover's trance. Hands meet, their bodies press She in her red strapless dress He leads her around the dance floor Twirled and swayed her pulse soared. Perfectly in rhythm, fevered by the night Their every move felt just right His hips welcome the cadence of hers To the music their energy endures To the small of her back, his hand slips Holding her close, a smile on his lips All the excitment but the night's still young The first dance had just begun ------------------ www.auburn.edu/~fergum1 ~*Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars*~ [This message has been edited by Moonlight (edited 08-07-99).] |

You just keep getting me excited :0 with your poems! I can barely contain myself... boy I wish I knew how to dance... ------------------ Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll be among the stars. -Unknown- So let the sun beat down upon my face, It's warmth will dry my tears. |
