Marilene Evans Poet Verse

Sway With Me

SWAY WITH ME

Stand
right here. 
Look
at me.
I know you
do not
dance.
I will
dance around 
you, then put your
hands around
my waist
when
I get
in front of 
you, sway
and
gaze at
me.

Mystic Rose Rose June 24, 2021 at 6:07 PM I feel the music of your step, congrats dear poet :) Marilene Evans June 24, 2021 at 6:50 PM Ohhh, you're really a poet!!! I feel like dancing... thank you.

Andrea Dietrich June 24, 2021 at 5:51 PM ahh, so nice, and I like that you used it for actual dance the way I did too. Congrats for your win Marilene Evans June 24, 2021 at 6:48 PM I was really going to write 'Waltz with Me"; but the guy I like does not dance, he just watches me dance while he plays his guitar with his band. I think he could at least sway with me.

Terry Flood June 24, 2021 at 3:08 PM So that's the slow dance sorted... now, teach me to boogie on down ;-) Marilene, I can quite vividly imagine such a scene. Congrats on a worthy winner. Terry Marilene Evans June 24, 2021 at 3:14 PM Thanks, so much Terry. I would really like to boogie on down, Rock and Roll, Swing, twist, jerk, mash potato. I do boogie down every other Friday night, so much fun.

Alexis Y. June 8, 2021 at 5:36 PM Hi Marlene, You rose to the challenge with your entry. I like how you tied “ dance” into your write. Is it a waltz?I found it to be well-written and romantic. I enjoyed the dance. Best wishes in the contest. Have a great day:-)Alexis Marilene Evans June 8, 2021 at 6:54 PM Hello, Alexis. I have a big project I'm working on so I have not really written lately. For some reason, I feel like taking a break and kind of wanting to dance waltz; but I decided to just imagine and pen a poem. Have a nice evening.
