Moonlight Twilight softly falls Without making a sound The stars above are shining Onto the dew soaked ground. A cool breeze blows Across my mortal frame Whistling gently through the trees As I wait to see you again. The light from the silvery moon Hails your return to me Your beauty and your grace Are for my eyes only to see. Your radiant face shines In the light of the moon And I ask you for this dance For I know you will be gone soon. I gently take you into my arms And we dance through the crisp night air For as long as you are holding me I am free, without a care. To the music of the wind Whispering through the trees We dance the night away Our spirits soaring free. Oh, how I long to remain In your loving embrace But I know in my heart That you cannot stay. And so, with the fading Of the silvery moonbeams I kiss you softly goodbye, until tomorrow, When I will see you in my dreams. Terry Woodson ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |

Did I mention that I can Waltz to the rythm of the breeze, Sway under the pale moonlight, Twirl amongst the stars so bright? (wink)  |
