LOVER'S DANCE She came to me by candlelight Hair drawn back and face alight, With passion unbound she kissed me deep A love so strong that I could not keep My voice from crying out. Emotions soaring, twisting, turning Bodies stretching,reaching, yearning. Our lovers dance, consumed by each other No longer apart, but one with the other Oblivious to the world. Our dance continues through the night A never-ending timeless flight Of all things beautiful and good and right We soar 'til dawn breaks with morning's light The time passed too quickly. Passions spent, we take our leave Knowing 'tis but a short reprieve, For come the night we will dance once more Like the oceans waves upon the shore Ceaseless, timeless, evermore. author unknown
