Holding You In a Dance

holding you in a dance the side-by-side stroll raising my arm is your cue begins the whirlwind a whisper crosses the floor you turn into me my hand slides to the hips fold arm into mine bringing in the warmth cheek to cheek, lips to ear i adore you now the gentle separation my arm reaches into the heavens hers in hand as my other lowers begins the magic in her pirouette as she turns her hair rushes shoulder to shoulder i am spellbound in the wave the foam appears receding, revealing the ivory neck of the Venus i so adore the ear comes into full view where so often i hover a butterfly caught in the magic acquiring drams in a captivating meadow moments spent in endearment as that cheek-nose comes into view i see Greek sculptors lost in a daydream where chisel and stone await in reverence as my hand pulls your hip in lips in a simper, a delicious temptation but not enough to deter our eyes embracing as hysteria succumbs to ecstasy our cheeks glide into one another i am in a moment with her ear i missed you this is how my world turns in the heavens we are OKC 12/22
