Dance With Me , Sweet Adele

Dance With Me , Sweet Adele Dance with me , sweet Adele, where moonlight soaks ancient trees: For such memory explodes my soul and soothes my spirit, a date upon magical soil. You that weave eternal, enchanting dreams, fear not, my love walks with thee- and where cool winds reward the gleaming dawn our souls unite in lavish splendor. Dance with me , sweet Adele, upon distant foreign shores wrap your arms around this aching mind. Utter those sweet words that forever bind me unto thy bosom and luscious lips. My Adele, dance again with me-even if out of pity: For my loneliness and regret of not holding you more For my wicked ways, my dark, vain words- and that Fate has punished me a thousand times more! Robert J. Lindley, Note- Began decades ago-finished this morn. Her name was not Adele but since she was a real person in my life and all my family and hers as well would realize our hidden romance so many decades ago, I changed the name.
