Stardust I'M Seeing

Trees breezily sway 
to a tropical tune we hear playing.
You grin as you twirl me 
with what seems like wizardry!
Under the big golden moon, 
I look to the sky.
But where are the stars 
on this night so enchanting?
Are they hiding?
 Then I look into your eyes,
and . . . stardust I’m seeing.

Congratulations on your win. "Wonderful" I love your line, "to a tropical tune we hear playing." I could use that right about now. Can we run away????? Enjoy your win and day............

Andrea, I think we are starting to think too much alike. This is lovely. Mine was about a romantic moment as well.

Don't feel bad about entering it over and over, Greg keeps entering his best I think 5 times now and keeps winning and that was only written I think 2 years ago!

Well I said in the contest criteria pick your best poem you think I would like, not necessarily your most popular or the one with the most views. Personally I'm not sure your Cinder girl is your best it was written a long time ago, but I'm sure it would have made it in the top ten.
