Twirling Trance Come dance with me, Let me lead tonight Fear not my trance please Twirling in tune, I give glimpse of the real me In rhythm with the moon But come daybreak, Depart from you too soon Heart ache I cannot take For yours to give I'll not wait The odds against are high in stakes Dance with me the moon awaits My hand stokes your cheek as I turn and walk away Memories best instead of loveless end, I already regret this day Connie McDonald A very smart man helped me clean this write up to what it is (good or bad ) I don't know if he wants his name here too.... but I do want him to know its his also and Thanks |

My hand stokes your cheek as I turn and walk away Memories best instead of loveless end, I already regret this day This is a great write. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

It takes a smart woman to know when to walk away from a no-win situation and this is a really well thought out work. To you and your friend, I say...well done! |

Connie I love this, and you are kind. I have had other poets help me also when I get stuck and we all do time to time, and I always feel the same way, as if their name should go under the poem with mine. But I have been told that the thoughts and ideas are yours and so it is truly your poem, with help from a kind friend. love this, floria Floria |

I think Strbbux said it well, These words are yours since they are your emotions Any help was minor to the excellent poem you wrote. Gloom |

When two poets talk through one pen, then we know it will be as good as it gets...for sharing such a passion cannot go unnoticed... |

I give glimpse of the real me In rhythm with the moon But come daybreak, Depart from you too soon Heart ache I cannot take For yours to give I'll not wait The odds against are high in stakes Dance with me the moon awaits ====================== I love the rhythm and flow of this... great mix of theme, imagery and cadence. Well done poetess Connie and "smart man" |
