The seas eluded his grasp as he tugged and felt the small shell between his fingers. Reminding of a moment years past when she danced the evening air in his dreams, when life was young and nights were endless... never ending...and he knew this was one for the fires to dance her walls as his words caught her breath...and his arms....captured her soul. To dance, Beating here in the eternal grasp of time Reminiscent of summers impatient wind chime The low lay of lamp beckons on into night Falls the breath of immortal by pale moon light If only the vine might fill the chalice before night’s end, that two might sip of that which each has carved of mere raw blocks of wetted clay. Entwining words upon the gray spire, ever spinning...as one might the mind...before sleep wrests from each . . . a prize. To dance, Drinking deeply the fine wine of pleasure His vision remarked of a soft two step measure In his arms she recalled most assuredly so To be taken by inches at the turn of his tow A gown of silk defied his eyes as in slumber he romanced his prize. A moon would recall flowing steps by two in a language of love for a poet’s review. |
