Ballroom Dance

graceful dips and an elegant leap intertwined arms and no time for sleep then it starts with the classic lindy hop to end the dance with the quick stop drop finally what everyone wants for the other dances were only taunts to the majestic dance with no faults the one and only, the glorious waltz couples twirl, couples spin feeling the music sing within the pianos pursue, the violins chase the maestro conducts with near perfect grace the ball gowns and skirts look like colored clouds and bring color to the dancing crowds men look sharp in their black and white suits that match perfectly with their crisp, shiny boots as the sky grows darker and out come the stars no one bothers to go off to their carriage cars so still the music goes carrying on no one wanting to be gone though soon it becomes that time when the bells have started over their chime and shoes have grown worn out so the people begin to fadeout thus the ball is done with the next to be on the fifth but smiles still remain the memories refusing to abstain so everyone sleeps with joy every single girl and boy repeats what happened in their heart the music refusing to depart
