Tango Dance Lovers

Tango dance Lovers


An improvision of closeness,
a single body with four legs.
sensuality and seduction,
a gesture with ambiguity.

A single body with four legs, 
sensing each other through movement.
Putting us in sphere of action,
like total trust through connection.

sensuality and seduction,
capture his every attention,
by tricks of tenderness that tease,
movements of hips with ease and grace.

A gesture with ambiguity,
overwhelmed by fierce embraces.
The pulsing energy within 
feelings that says it without words.

By kelleyana Junique.





A Retourne is a French poetry form wherein repetition is used, employed. It consist 
of four quatrains (four-line stanzas), with each line having eight syllables. The trick 
is though that the first stanza's second line must also be the second stanza's first 
line, the first stanza's third line is the third stanza's first, and the first stanza's 
fourth line is the fourth stanza's first. Retournes can but do not have to rhyme.
