Moonlight dance

Leroy Trail 1974 (Kentucky)

Free verse
She dances in the moonlight
Lyrics caressing her soul
Stars shimmering quietly
Giving her angelic glow.

Her eyes sparkle with love
Smiling from within
Melody embraces her
Again and again

Intoxicating is her voice
Her song released
Dancing in the moonlight
Bringing forth peace

Her eyes penetrate the soul
One cannot look away
She dances within her melody
Awaiting its embrace
