You Raise Your Knee

you raise your knee then stamp the foot down in a quick thrust as a mare in warning, snap your head back we lock eyes then meld in each other's arms we move together your hand upon my hip my hand secure at her shoulder blade the other arm extended hand in hand she must be maintained in this position to lead her in the curving moves across the floor i am the Earth holding the Moon in our orbit as we swirl thru our own universe it is a dramatic reenactment of a movie that inspired her, we began lessons another notch in her list of accomplishments it is an unending play at playing i am forever grateful for the request i may not be the most adept not exactly someone to be envied as we glide across the floor but as i hold you as the music surrounds us your eyes hold me in more than a magical moment i have come to know, That's Amore when you waltz into fantasy knowing it is not imagination you are holding thankful you never loved the Charleston yet, if that is what it takes i will add it to my burdens for love there exists no cross too large to bear and in spite of my initial thoughts i love every moment with you kind of like sitting at the table what seems forever waiting for you to walk in dressed and ready to depart and as soon as my eyes fill with you now ready i never remember a moment spent waiting life is all about enchantment and that exists only when dreams walk in life hand in hand 1/26/19 Kismet
