They Meet............The Story of Shy Lady

The first time out in over forty-five years
Dazzling streets paved with snow
Scary movements, unprepared
Life after forty-five years.
Her hair a soft golden blond
The passage of time leaving marks of beauty
This beauty encased with wrinkles
and a porcelain glow.

He does not notice the color of her eyes
He only notices the golden hair
and
the gentle sway of her slender hips.
He says in his gentle voice,
“May I have this dance Shy Lady.”
She turns with a smile and says in a quiet voice,
“Yes. But I have not danced in forty five years.”

Their steps blend into one as they glide across the floor.
The lights go dim-
The music fades into the background
As love, gently wraps about
these two tender hearts
These two gentle souls,
Shy Lady and Sir Gallant.

Love Bon-Bon

This is one of my favs of yours, and when you read it to me, made all that more of an impact...brought tears of joy to my eyes and heart.  Magnificant write my friend.
