The Dance

There's much chatter now
Nothing but love in the air,
Many couples are forming
For the sweetheart dance is near.

Wondering what boy will ask you
Should you ask, You wouldn't dare,
Nervously and patiently you wait
This is far to much for a girl to bare.

The dreaded shopping begins
Find the right dress for you,
One not to long or short
But will fit just perfect for you.

Shall it be frilly or lace
Purple, blue, or red,
Feeling anxious and confused
Should you choose pink instead.

Upon thinking you should give up
There it is before your eyes,
The perfect dress for you
Just like a dream, its the right size.

A glamerous silky gown on
Dancing slow under the ligh,
You and your handsome date
Memoris forever made that night.
