  They were slow dancing
         he was holding her so tight,
      swaying in rhythm across the floor
        they danced late into the night.

        Letting the music carry them
           within it's magical spell
        looks exchanged between two
       and only their hearts could tell.

          The magic of the moment
          under the moonlight skies
         sprinkled them with stardust
         love sparkled in their eyes.

       He whirled her across the room
       as love shined from their hearts
        knowing from that moment on
          they would never be apart.

           Within a single moment
          they found true romance
           begining with no more
         than their first slow dance.

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

Sigh, this was dreamy.  If life were only so real always!

Gently he holds her, taking command. Bringing her in close, fingertips in the small of her back; as he brought her head in close. They swayed on clouds, to the unspoken rythmn - I'm a romanatic at heart. Love the poem. LP
