The Concert

The ambiance was charged with excitement As captivating music impregnated the air The urge to boogie beyond their control Grooving to the beat, dancing truly unaware Lost to the music, all inhibitions departed Harmony pulsating through their veins Singing along with the entertainers When the band belted out refrains Meeting of eyes in mutual appreciation A ballad crooned with remarkable grace Skin flushed and kissed with perspiration Magnetically pulled into a sweet embrace Arms wrapped pleasantly around each other Melody inspired, moving in dreamlike states Comfortable like they been dancing for years Except for matching accelerated heart rates Existing within a moment totally in tune Blaring music only enhancing their elation A memory made worthy of storing in the banks Mutual passions on which to build a foundation 6/4/2015

Aaah, it so happened; love swelled within, right before hundreds. The music, singer, oh he nearly made me throw my bra. I didn't. Long Beach, CA sports arena. You captured ambiance and passion so smooth.
