~*~ Before the evening got its start I mirrored face, as all would see. Wishing to befriend myself this was the Me that I would be.....  ~*~ Sampling Life Danced the night away with him, the tunes of memories past. Rock and rolled, each beat of heart, felt pounding strong at last. I let my hair down, as it fell the tempo eased into the closeness of a softened sense, and felt the breath of you. I tasted drink, and lips of mine expressed a smile in toast. The new to rise, unmasked the eyes now sparkling without ghost of haunts and fears of hurts and tears that strained the last few days. Danced the night away with him in Cinderella ways. Swirled and whirled, as others watched wondering who? and where? In velvet touch each partner felt the truth beyond their glare. Dinner too, the talking light till laughter was dessert. Danced the night away, I did and cleansed life's feel of hurt. Cinderella at the Ball, with gentle thoughts tonight. Spirit flowed from in and out beneath the reigning light. Full circle too, said one to her from childhood, "Thanks", was due. The warmth from all had moment stilled A Midnight shared with you. ~Wynter... {will add the letting down hair pics later} "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul." (J.Garland) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 12-09-2001).] |

Sue, thank you..was no Fairytale...It was a real evening out...I felt like Cinderella...dressed up...with no expectations but to enjoy myself. "No expectations" I was once told...it's better to have none, then you will "never be disappointed". I have learned that lesson, a harsh one, the hard way. hugss ~Wynter/Maureen "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. |

Maureen, This is indeed a real life Cinderella story played out for all of us to see. But, it is not a story, not a play...it's real life and it's YOU! I am so pleased to see you so happy and love the pic. Look forward to seeing ones of you letting your hair down! You glow sweetie! ~hugs, Nancy~ "A dream is a wish your heart makes..." |

sometimes life can be just like a fairy-tale....mostly at moments we don't expect anything. Beautiful moments of life, and you caught that midnight dance so wonderful in your words and shared it with us...... Wish you many more beautiful midnight moments... Charisma ~*Theresia~* |

 (smiles) Oh Maureen, I'm so happy and proud of you, it brings tears of joy to my eyes to feel you, a very beautiful loving lady and friend, dancing as a lively spirit and playing the role of the Cinderella you are! (smiles) It may not be a fairy-tale, but it's the next best thing, and may this dance be the dance that fills your heart with joy forever! (sigh) We all love you, sweet Maureen! (kiss on cheek) Your poem made me smile! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Maureen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

How does one stand up and cheer over the computer?? Cause that's what I feel like doing after reading this. So glad you found a space of happiness. Dancing has been known to take me away from the bad times, too. And this was written so well, just wonderful all around. Sandra |

Maureen, Very romantic and caressing. I felt like I was dancing with you. Check to see if your feet are sore from being stepped on to make sure it wasn't me. Beautiful poem. Roger |

So glad that you had a wonderful time and blessed us here by sharing it. You tell it wonderfully, and it sounds as if you had great fun. I love pieces like this that bring a smile and make one feel good. You've captured your evening and brought it out for us to watch, better than a video! Brava, dear and hope you have many more Cinderella nights. ...and her crown was formed by the ice in her eyes |

Maureen, What a babe, what a night, what a change and what a delight! Congratulations. The past is history and the future is a mystery, but today is a gift and that is why it is the present! |
