Rescue Party

The Rescue Party
By David J Walker 

It was only after the dance 
That we spoke
The music that enhanced 
The chances of the chance meeting
Faded into the night
And there we were 
Standing alone on the steps 
leading to tomorrow
The embrace was spontaneous  and
The steps were unrehearsed 
and the song we sang together
Were versed in our own unspoken words
and the tune flowed from our hearts
To our heads
As an evening’s failure fades 
Into a rescue party
