Dance With Me Tonight
Trumpets resound through the archways
spilling out onto the ancient cobblestone streets
pulling me closer with every upbeat note
into the direction of the tropical seaside cabana
My old weathered tan top-siders tap
these old arthritic knees start to sway
yellow and blue lights rhythmically flash
sprinkling the festive dance floor with color
Exotic couples captivated in a Salsa or Mambo
heating the night up under a refreshing breeze
the view out over the veranda is breathtaking
as the orange-hued sun dips over the horizon
A lone sweet princess longingly looks my way
adorning the most elegant flowing azure dress
our eyes lock, a vision of loveliness in my sight
sundrenched beauty dance with me tonight
