Waltztime - Dance With Contest

Was walking across the golden sands Could hear music on the breeze Eyes closed and with  shoes in hand I waltzed across the sand with ease Such fancy steps when i suddenly found  What felt like strong hands holding mine Fred Astaire was leading me around I was dancing in the film Swing Time. I whisked and chassis'd  like a pro I turned at the corners as i should My legs knew just where to go My heart beat with heavy thud. The music ended I opened my eyes I was all alone on that sandy shore I looked down to my surprise On my feet were the dance shoes I wore Now when I am lonely, I close my eyes To return to that glorious day When all alone i walked the sand that wonderful moment i can never repay Penned 28 June 2013

LOVE this gem Seren, especially line three of the first verse....I can easily picture that...I live in south Louisianne and love watching Cajun couples waltz...They literally glide across the floor as if they are ice skating...A beautiful sight to behold...Congratulations - Tim
