Oh, how they danced as the sun shimmered red,
it dipped far away as the stars upwards sped.
Still, they danced, leaving footprints on wet sand,
Sometimes straight or crisscrossing, everything grand.

Occasionally, they stopped, and in a hug, they kissed.
Or ran to some cave that was their secluded tryst.
Time passed fast, and they returned to their bridal suite.
Before retiring, they drank champagne and pastry sweet.

Victor, My Victor - so happy that you are giving me the bird again - seriously, I love seeing the bird on my pages. I saw you in my dreams after returning to PS. You were seated behind a desk, composing poetry on a computer and smiled widely and grandly when I walked, then you went to fetch something and didn't return. It was a happy and confusing dream. I loved reading the above poem because it is so you, the you who writes poems that bring me joy. Your pen stays true ... CayCay

Such a beautiful ambiance youv described in such an artistic manner! Love the flow and how youv painted imagery, and the picture youv used here is so fitting too for the poem. I especially love the lines "it dipped far away as the stars upwards sped. Still, they danced, leaving footprints on wet sand, Sometimes straight or crisscrossing, everything grand." How stunning!!! I can see through your well articulated lines! Pleasure reading this! Sending you light always

I can imagine the calm and love they have. Being watched by the sun, marked by the wet sand and cheered up with champagne. I'll be sure to use a white wine when I dance with my beloved as I do not like champagne.

Victor, oh, Victor, long has been the wait to realize this moment of splendor ... OKAY, RETURN TO SERIOUS - - I have not felt lighthearted and playful in quite a long time which means our visit is truly memorable. Spontaneous, fulfilling moments are blessed rarities and I'm so glad we shared one. You Look Marvelous ... CayCAy
