Standing here, waiting to begin Looking back at where we've been You came into my life from out of the blue And I can't think of a better time than this to tell you A lot has happened from the start Since the begining, you've had my heart From the day we met "we were more than friends" And my love "I can hardly wait till we meet again" Walking together with hope in our hands I've given hope, you've helped me stand From each other my love we draw strength There's nothing for you I wouldn't do I'd go to any length We never knew which way we'd walk We would just hold hands and talk "If you don't really know where you want to go It doesn't matter which road you take" Our hearts will know The band warms up and begins to play My love, how I've waited for this day To be here with you since we took that chance To do the one thing that we've never done. . . . . . We've never danced. . . ------------------------------------------------------------- < !signature--> That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl [This message has been edited by Sven (edited 05-28-2000).] |

"The band warms up and begins to play My love, how I've waited for this day To be here with you since we took that chance To do the one thing that we've never done. . . . . We've never danced. . ." Sven that was wonderful, I loved the way the words flowed as I was reading it and when I got to the last line I found myself smiling. Thank you for sharing this poem. ------------------------ "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? " Douglas Adams.

The anticipation of sharing a dance can be as lovely as the dance itself...this is a sweet treasure of a poem, my friend... ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Sven~ A romantic twirl around the dance floor of your heart is such a treat. You're certainly no wallflower. I like it so much when I can hear the music playing through your writing. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

This captivated me from the moment I began to read. I think perhaps you are right....our hearts know, even sometimes before our heads. This was a beautiful read Sven. Marina [This message has been edited by Marina (edited 05-28-2000).] |

Sven... I ADORE this poem... you shine in its sweet devotion and anticipation. it is so wonderful to see the things this love inspires in you my friend. later-romantic-gator jm Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme, They are not measured by the commitment of time. Some emotions run too deep to be described by words, Forgiveness and understanding-remain the most beautiful words ever heard. ~Janet Marie~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ...

Oh Sven.... no lessons needed...just take her in your arms, feel the music, enjoy the closeness and it will happen! Wait a minute....that sorta' sounds like something else, huh ? Well, the feelings are almost the same...you can't go wrong. Just hold each other to the sound of the music!! MagnoliaBlue Pay a visit to: http://cyberageadventures.com You will love it!

Sven to hold her is the most blissful feeling in my life though I fear her response as I've felt. She creates so many sensations in me and makes me stare at her. I guess when we meet now we'll dance. |

~Sven oh you captured my heart with this one dear friend! gosh how i adore your writing! you are for sure the ever romantic! you are as hopeless as me lol...and i mean that in a good way. i hope this "dance" is all you anticipated and more. wishing you lots of love & luck m'friend! take care, amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends."

Oh my I almost missed this one.....Glad I didn't. This fits so well of my life with one woman I know.....Its so real and true. Enjoyed it more than I should I think It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. |
