‘Tis Stirring This Pressing of Flesh to Flesh ‘Tis stirring this pressing of flesh to flesh, A polished, yea elegant comeliness, Sweet rhythmic timbre and fervor enmesh— —In pirouettes of enchanting finesse. Let not the cadence of a minuet, Trouble mine-ears, and confuse chaste joyance, With thee cherished heart the world I’d forget, As we revolve together, locked in dance. O' the waltzes of Strauss beckon dearest, Their lilting strains draw ever at my heart, A sensuality that knows not rest— —A timelessness that doth flow from fine art. Vienna thy strain is one of yearning— —Inglorious rapture. Two hearts burning. Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |

Ok, so I'm really old, but you know what I saw? A mother, dancing to an unheard lullabye with her babe in her arms... just like I use to do... and I've just deemed this, a mother's |

As we revolve together, locked in dance. hmmmmm, boy I liked that....and picturing the Last Dance...what a doosie of a painting... O' the waltzes of Strauss beckon dearest, Their lilting strains draw ever at my heart, A sensuality that knows not rest— —A timelessness that doth flow from fine art. Sensuality that knows not rest~ Wow.... Vienna thy strain is one of yearning— —Inglorious rapture. Two hearts burning. ahhhh, can hear the gondaliers... What a journey you've taken us on here simply stunning! |

Waltzing to Strauss - dancing in the moonlight to Bethoven, taking a minute to minuet with Schubert - the intense passion of Wagner - the emotion of Tchikowsky - yes, EV2- the pressing of flesh - the feel of great composition - Enjoyed this greatly - Susan If I wander far enough, long enough, will I finally know . . . |
