The Waltz
63Beauty and Elegance
The Truth
Every so often a person comes into your life who makes an everlasting impression. We all know them, we have all experienced them and we all have been nurtured by their friendship. This little poem is a fleeting thought of all of those people who have touched my life in one way or another. Some of you are precious still, some of you have past on. Others will always linger in my memories. But the point that I am making, is that each and every one of you have helped me move on. Without you I would be just an empty shell, void of emotion and lacking in knowledge and wisdom.
The Dance
One two three, one two three,
the rhythm gently swaying
the music full of emotion
two minds enthralled, together
like the gentle waves of the ocean.
The hold of the dance so close
yet with open arms just fleeting
ships passing in the night
memories so special, greeting
One two three, one two three
The movement so gently dreaming
of two hearts beating
Blue eyes full of laughter
glances true and lingering.
two bodies swaying so close
glimmer of hope just singing
the dance floor fills with echoes
of minds playing games, meeting
One two three, one two three
love is like a butterly
so fragile while it is breathing
The dress is oh so stunning
the shoes with diamanté, glittering
the light, full of elation
your arms full of temptation.
gracious movement lovingly waiting
trust left in tatters, grieving.
One two three, one two three
dreams or visions casting
friendship and love everlasting
two minds dance as one
two lives across the miles, gone
friendship stays nurturing
selfless and forgiving
time has a way of healing
true friendships, always appealing.
One two three, one two three
the music gently soothing
broken hearts are moving
away from all the pain
new loves and friendships to gain
For those left behind
are truly lovers scorned
the future holds such dreams
that the music should not be mourned
One two three, one two three
the lights go down, shadows casting
on the two figures dancing
One day the sun will rise
and the stars will shine so bright
for the music on the world, friendships re-unite
trust, love and beauty
become the eyes of one
forever open to secrets, forever regretting none.

Maybe Life is a "Waltz" in itself...Taking us along...Dance after Dance...until the Last Dance. Live and Enjoy...Wonderful Poetry Bluestar.
The memory of the dance lingers in most of our souls. I have held plenty of woman in my arms in my time and there was nothing nicer at that moment than The Dance. The scent of a woman has stayed in my nostrils always since the dance, a woman is at the height of her beauty when she dances gracefully in and around the arms of her dancing partner. Nicely done my friend, I'm dizzy now, gonna sit out the next dance my lady if tis okay with you:-)
I was swaying as i read your words. The dance, beauty in motion..Loved it. Cheers
I love your beautiful poem. I used to watch ballroom dancing in England and I heard that most of the dancers then used to make their own dresses. Vote you up and beautiful.
Net, you touched many people here as well. Such a fitting tribute to the ones who have touched you. Awesome...
I felt as though I was gliding round the room reading your words, beautiful poem thank you.
You said it so well, this is beauty and elegance. What a finely paced melody in words.
Sweet Annette,
May I have this dance... so glad you are up on your feet/ hopefully feeling better. I knew you would not be down for long...that's not your style!This is elegance and beauty.
Voted UP & ABI. Keep moving forward and don't ever look back. 1..2..3....1..2..3.. Love, Maria
1-2-3, 1-2-3.
I can feel you in my arms, Annette, gently swaying as we traverse the floor.
Thank you for the dance. m'lady.

Such a lovely poem set to such a beautiful dance as the waltz. I could feel the movement and rythm as I glided through it.
Such a lovely tribute to those who have touched your life
I absolutely loved the flow of this piece Blue! Really great! Made me think of all the wonderful people in my life that "calm" me. Thanks,
Sharyn
