Dance Our Lives Away. Dancing with you in the moonlight under a canopy of velvet sky, the shimmer of angels’ candles the only light from on high. I feel your arms around me, revel in the warmth of your embrace. I drink in every feature, every line, written on your time worn face. In the shadows I see a boy, the one you used to be, from a time so long ago when you first gave your love to me. Blurred by the haze of time an old couple dance across my sight My face, in the mirror of age, smiles, then disappears into the night. As I feel the music fading and the night slowly turns to day I whisper, “It’s my heartfelt dream to dance our lives away.” I wish you every happiness and pray you'll always have the best of the good things in life. a brand |

SEA - this is so odd, I was reading "Never Meant To Be" while you were reading my poem. I'm glad it touched your heart. Dee< !signature--> I wish you every happiness and pray you'll always have the best of the good things in life. a brand [This message has been edited by Dee (edited 11-08-2000).] |

Dee, I think your poets heart must be feeling very good at the moment for many enjoy your work. I ditto Balladeer's comments, but then I also have to agree with Marge too. "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |
