A dance of romance.



Swirling and twirling as though in a trance
a seductive glance gone in a flash
teasing, arousing, holding me prisoner
under your spell I completely surrendered.

The light in your eyes, the warmth of your smile,
passion took hold as my soul merged with yours
my heart exposed for all to see
lost in a dance of romance.

Candle light flickered, sweet fragrance lingered,
shooting stars streaked through the sky,
a gentle breeze carried the music
the music of your love and mine.

Fingers caressing, a quickening pulse,
soft smooth skin so close
bodies entwined, whispering secrets,
as soft candle's glow slowly subsides.
