Falling Into Time With You as I danced upon this path of life I looked up you were by my side you asked to waltz this dance with me this song so new I let you lead on the dance floor in your arms you swept me up and I was charmed we giggled as we got to know and felt like we’d met long ago you kiss me as I melt into your heart as mine is skipping too the band play on we dance some more there’s magic on this dancing floor you hold me closer in this dance you serenade me in romance my feet don’t even feel the floor you capture my heart more and more you tuck me in you keep me safe I’m falling deep in your embrace your arms so strong to hold my nights a love that seems to fit just right the stars that shine upon a wish to keep forever times like this we’ll dream together on the stars a dream so sweet this dream is ours just hold me under moonlit skies we’ll stand still as the world goes by you reach your hand to touch my face and kiss me as my heart does race your kiss so soft and tender too I’m falling into time with you catch me in your dream filled arms catch me hold me keep me warm as winter brings her coldest days by hearts of fire let us stay keep me always in your kiss keep forever in a wish If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

Hey Balladeer, she has her hands full...but I'm just standing here, a flower holding up the wall. |

Boy, this dance floors getting crowded!!! You're going to be a busy man Balladeer. I was going to tell you that I saved a slot on my dance card for you...but I see I'm going to have to fight Kacy and Nancy for your attentions!!! lol And hey, Kacy, I may have my hands full....but hey..I have two arms, two legs…can’t I dance with two guys???? If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

HAHAHA. I can't stop laughing at this thread. Are we as silly as we look? I love this place. I can be a smart***, silly, brilliant(?)(?) almost anything I want to be, and you guys just accept me....whatever. And look at this dance card Tracey holds.....Can anyone top this??? Doubtful. |

Tracey, before this poem gets lost in all the silliness I wanted to say that it is filled with so much love and tenderness. What a lovely way to fall in love. Now anyone want to dance with the new girl? Summon the courage to step out of your familiar, comfortable rut and suddenly many of those things which held you back will no longer have the power to do so.

And hey James, glad to see you dropped by for a dance too. misguided angel (love that name by the way), thank you so much for your kind comments. and yes, come dance with us!!! If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? [This message has been edited by Tracey (edited 11-25-2001).] |

As usual I am a little late but hope to get at least the last dance in with somebody ... I guess I will just have to stand in line until the club reopens in the morning ... just give a nudge and a cup of coffee and I will be ready. For now I am going to go back and read the poem again ... It was very tender, sweet ... excellent!! |

I adore the dance floor. Many a passionate times in the heat of letting go...with ya clothes on! Your verse is such a melody of lovely steps. I have thoroughly enjoyed the replies as well. Big laughs at Balladeer and the other hopeful dancers of your magic. Keep em' spinning girl! Sincerely, Regina |

Craig, okay, here’s your morning coffee…let’s start dancin!!! Regina, yes, I love dancing too…come join us in the dance. Balladeers dance card is pretty crowded, but we now have Magnus, James and Craig to help him out Kathleen, so glad you enjoyed it. No Sandra, you didn’t miss the party, you got here just in time for a spin on the floor Ah, Balladeer, I thought you’d be exhausted after all that dancing last night, but here you are, bright and chipper, ready to carry on the dancing!! Cool graphics If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Tracey! I can't recall if I even said how much I enjoyed this poem! Well...I did, and do! My feet have blisters but I am rested and ready to rock again! Turn off that blasted bubble machine, hit the spotlights and lets boogie on down! Balladeer has had too much coffee! Boy is he hyper! I love this! |

Unfortunately I never learned to dance - usually just kept the girls in check to other guys were free to dance. But Tracey - I'd get out on the floor with you if Balladeer would just give me a chance to step on your toes... Very much enjoyed this (and all the ribald afterwards) and I think your ending line sums it all up perfectly...."forever in a wish". jwesley |

Watching quietly a day or two the dance floor soon to clear it's the last dance I want with you your heart to mine, my dear. And as you wish, I will lead under dreamer's night your guide take hold my hand as we may meet falling into more than time. You know I loved this, Tracey. Hope you saved me the last dance. For evermore. |

"your arms so strong to hold my nights a love that seems to fit just right the stars that shine upon a wish to keep forever times like this" "your kiss so soft and tender too I’m falling into time with you catch me in your dream filled arms catch me hold me keep me warm" Oh Tracey ... this was splendid! Beautifully creative phrasing throughout! What a wonderful cadence and rhyme ... I caught myself tapping along as I read. I'll have to come back and read all of these responses as I'm running late for work ... but wanted you to know I read and thoroughly enjoyed! Best wishes, /Kit |
