                        Image result for halloween dance

When the blood- red of moon acts as a backdrop, In your arms I begin to feel this night’s potion Beguiling hours as we sway to the beat; Our flesh clings near, nearer with night’s alchemy… So let us dance on a field where Jack lanterns dim Where stars circle around the ebon night sky, Awakening rabid thrills of a ghostly trance. With my velvet frock, O tango me caress me Till the pinch into love’s rite sparks a witching moan, A cauldron of incantation heating in whirled bliss… And while the city screeches from October’s devilry, Just dance me right, we’ll play old raven’s quick flight Before moon’s credo turns us into iced zombies, A sorcerous twirl we must replay next Hallows Eve. 10.19.2016 Theme: Love Galeo DS’ Contest : May I Dance With You

Wonderful poem, Nette. You really are a true wordsmith. The language of a macabre yearly recurring love dance was very seductive. Great write. My first foray into your collection of poems. I'm hooked, so save the last dance for me. Love and peace from the RW (Romantic Warrior.)

My nephew set a poem of mine - Demon, Demon to music. You can hear it at Ghost Funk Orchestra - Demon, Demon. It has a similar theme. Peace & Love Matthew Anish
