Elena, Elena

~~Elena, Elena~~ Dances Salsa, Macarena and the Bossa Nova, till Rio's dawn! Elena and her love, Bebo, sway as she is his adoring, dancing fawn. Outside, the welcomed raindrops bring a sweet coolness, to her flushed, tanned cheeks. That to the touch, have a loving,  velvet smoothness that men seek. Ah, Elena and Bebo are anything but mild or meek. She dreams of Samba School each night of the week! To march and dance with outrageous pizazz! In the Caraval Parade, with a sequins aflash. Add her hypnotic brown eyes and her flashing, purple and gold sash. For Elena, life is her very own, colorful  and most musical toy. You'll find her dancing through the streets of Rio, teasing the hypnotized, mesmerized Bebo. ~~~~~~ August 20, 2019

You have truly captured the essence of carnival dear Panagiota. The heat and the passion flow through your poets pen and the beat of the music is loud and clear. A truly evocative write that took me there too - thank you my friend. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

Lindsay, have you ever watched You Tube with Carnaval and all that great music? I play lots of Brazilian music and other styles at home. Brazilian, Bossa Nova, is my FAV, it's so soft and romantic. Glad you enjoyed..Panagiota thank you!
