I douse myself by melodious waves of music As he maneuvers me into his gracefulness Clasps of our hands draw my ebullience like magic In ecstasy, feet slide to and fro to express The pleasure at ritzy hall in ballroom delight Huge array of lights shimmers on our gala dress Oh, I am sheer brought to the crest of his limelight! He sways me and turns, our balancing pays the price Wearing my confidence in the spectator’s sight I can feel every beat with his most sumptuous spice His perfume wafting on air, I’m more than alive Clutching back our body close, great passions arise All in delighted spirit, convivial grace thrives Ballroom dancing paints the beauty where love survives Nov. 30, 2014 10.55 a.m - In honor of Victor Gabriel Gilbert, a great painter and artist. I like him so much and his masterpiece. Imagining to dance with him in consummate ease:) Seventh Place Contest: Ballroom Delights Judged: 12/16/2014 Sponsor: Poet Isiah Zerbst
