Laken Smith Poet Rhyme

Moonlight Dance

Two lovers, taking a midnight stroll
Two hearts beating, binding the soul

Eyes that never wander
emotions running wild

He caresses her cheek
he loves to make her smile

He looks up into the starry sky
a little nervous but he has much pride

He brings her into his warm embrace
she looks at him, such beauty and grace

The two begin to sway
he must not miss this chance

How better to end the day
but with a moonlight dance

Her head on his shoulder
his heart full of love

He takes in her pleasant scent
knows she was sent down from above

The stars were shining
ever were they so bright

They shared a true love's kiss
then told the moon goodnight

Keith Osborne May 12, 2017 at 8:26 PM Laken, this is as beautiful as your name (which I absolutely love). I would be interested how your rhymes would read with an emphasis on the power words and less of the filler words. Some of the redundency. Your readers are well versed enough to understand if you imply some items. I must add you to my favs. I see a real talent within your soul. I hope I make sense. Laken Smith May 13, 2017 at 10:47 AM I have never tried that, I will experiment a little when I get some free time this weekend :) It does make sense and thank you Keith. I really enjoy your comments. :)
