Prelude to the dance |

Every moment every detail Of our contact oh so sweet In the passing of each hour Through my mind will oft repeat Every drop of raw emotion Be it joy or be it pain Join together in a torrent Quench my soul like gentle rain As the turmoil slowly settles Like the calm before a storm Rise an inner peace so swiftly Leaving thoughts all soft and warm Like a river gently flowing Free from all the strife within Touch our souls so very lightly Slowly let the dance begin [This message has been edited by Eddie de Jong (edited 08-01-2000).] |

Thank you all for the wonderful welcomes and words of encouragement. Not only is this my first post, but also my first ever attempt at poetry. The verses simply flowed as an expression of emotions, but it was very scary opening those emotions up to public scrutiny. Thanks again. E |

James, Thanks for the kind words. I am tempted to say "Call me Mr Smooth" but that might detract from your meaning. E |

Very nice indeed! Welcome to this haven for Romantics. I've always thought that there is something magical about the dance. You have woven that magic into an incantation. Well done.
