We meet within a shady Grove of pecan trees Their bold branches sway in Sun setting - shadows Soft rays break through The leaves to dance upon Us below "Shall we dance I ask"? "Did you bring music? you ask" " We are here among nature We have our symphony, We have each other" "And what song you ask?" A melody of how life Might have Been You take my hands, Our fingers linked, you caress Them softly With your lips, And brush the hair away From my face And for a moment my emotions, by No fault of my own change, As you know what I am feeling, What you are feeling I tremble in your arms, I try hard to hold The tears I feel Staining my cheeks And your shirt My heart breaks for the truth Of this, I see in your eyes A longing that is out of Reach for now You kiss my cheek with whispers "Darling’ I love you" This, our moment, is for now As the sun fades We dance *** "Within you I lose myself Without you I find myself Wanting to be lost again." -Unknown |

Oh, I like this, but it is a little steamy for an old lady. (blushing) Don't tell, but I really liked this. ME |

Now that is a dance that is worth wrapping your arms around.......not to mention your heart. Beautiful my poet friend but of course coming from you that was a given coming in to read it. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |
