Candid and fully exposed as the theatre’s light dims She stands poised, dauntless disciplined and statuesque A stance both stalwart and defiant yet supple are her limbs Mango hued flower, shoulder's thrown back thrusting her breast He sits rapped by intrigue as he studies her movement A silver fox and raven mane is neatly brushed regally back To beautify him further would take divine improvement Only to be bathed in her impassioned embrace does he lack Swirls of sangria red fabric charge like El toro spark undulating trails Laced in pearly white with azure blue print mesmerize and highlight And flow about her generous hips in a rage of billowing canvas sails Flamenco dancers firm legs are revealed in fish nets that boldly invite Whilst her furtive glimpse ignites his cavalier bon vivant smile She bewiles with onyx eyes that glisten and fingers splayed for effect He connects in a flash with a performers come hither guile Upon times eternal river this fiery night's tryst they shall reflect
