Dancing In the Moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight Celestial lights flicker in heavens expanse Harvest moon beckons us to the dance, it's mango luminosity caresses ebon sky Pat Metheny plays in a smooth undertone involuntarily we begin swaying to the music my arms wrapped around you tight ohh feels soo good all our cares drift away, floating into oblivion, as our eyes fixate, glances morph into gazes Stars align in our hearts, and we know that everything will be all right, dancing with you... in the moonlight. John Derek Hamilton October 6,2016

Love 'dancing in the moonlight' and Pat Metheny; smooth jazz and romantic poetry are my two favourite things.

Some expressive phrasing used in this so so romantic verse Derek - dancing under the moon becomes unforgettable with love in your arms. An engaging read.
