Songs In the Dark

I stepped quickly.
They were graceful steps
And still possessed the
Potential for slipping
Under me.

I was aching to know where
The soothing sultry noise had
Come from. I was sure  it 
Wasn't in my head.  It was
There through that generous
Crowd.

There was a stage.  My companion and
I stood on a slope.  We had a mostly clear
 View. The song in the darkness came 
FROM  her  DENISE WILLIAMS'

I could not turn this page and GRACEFULLY
walk away. For. Sure I would stumble.  My
Companion mumbled, let's  stand here and
Listen to this song.

Some held their lighters high hoping to hear
More clearly.  A song in the dark became a
Concert in the park.   
  
The grass was moist.  The atmosphere was
Bubbling  with execitement .I took my lighter from my bag
And held it high.  My companion did the
Same and smiled.

This was one of  DENISE  WILLIAM'S best   songs
BLACK BUTTERFLY.  Pleasing  seriously STUNNING
 Sultry Sunday sterling silver STYLE.

THE concert lasted quite a while.
Walk a mile.  Walk a mile.
