And

We met under a starry night
	And our smiles were bright under heavens light,
	And we danced until the morning grew,
	And we laughed over a silly story or two,
	And we shared our most intimate nature,
	And we understood we couldn’t hide anymore fractures,
	And we grew together beyond the moment,
	And we stepped forward into the present,
	And our hearts burst open into the world,
	And our thoughts grew peaceful as it stretched and whirled,
	And we gave ourselves to all who danced,
	And we gloried that we took this chance,
	And we continued on each in our own way,
	And we laughed with others each and every day,
	Until we met again under a starry night,
	Where we shared ourselves with hearts open and light.

Gale - Good use of a list poem. My favorite lines are - "we grew together beyond the moment," "we stepped forward into the present." Very nice!
