What was His Name

 UNSUPPORTED CODE 

Pondering past loves in the dim light of age,
the memories float upward, smiles engage sounds.
Ah, what was his name that handsome man from the stage?

Blindfolded, he lifted me and reality disengaged.
The sound of the harmonica swept all around.
Pondering past loves in the dim light of age.

A serenade planned the empty ice rink re-staged,
I was placed in the sweet spot I drowned in the sound.  
Ah, what was his name that handsome man from the stage?

Once unmasked, I tumbled to his arms, my eyes glazed  
like Ophelia sinking on love's waves to drown.
Pondering past loves in the dim light of age


Oh, the places he took me, my senses ablaze
in sunlight in moonlight, in starlight un-gowned. 
Pondering past loves in the dim light of age.
Ah, what was his name that handsome man from the stage?

    And it is unbelievable that such a memorable experience gifted does not have a name attached to it??
