Premium MemberA Tale of a Ballroom Dance, circa 1925

      His tie knotted tight at the collar
        pinches the neck, he’d love to holler

      Her corset pulled tighter than a drum 
        she’d like to scream, but can only hum

The Ballroom of Life

 Look around the ballroom,
it's laughs and gossips from all walks of life.
Where one confesses their love, 
While others meet "the one" for the first time.

Brighter than the lights that aglow,
There's a romance in the mood,
More soft and beautiful than a rose,
The love for life is in full bloom.

The younger ones chatter,
Their eyes talk with

Boys Dream Love

For the love buds in me shall release
The love that seems not to cease
Likened to butter and cheese
We shall bond like two pods full of peas
Her hair falling back like leaves of pine trees
Boys fight hard to appease 
But don't approach her with ease
I'll promise her love deep as seas
An honest love with no tributaries
Neither

Premium MemberAn Enchanting Walk Through the Vienna Woods

An Enchanted Walk In The Vienna Woods.
.
Gently caressed by a warm summers evening breeze
That tickles and teases the thickets of submitting leaves
Draped upon the dense towering lofty trees
On one enchanted soft diamond-studded velvet night
And a brazen ambient glowing moon
.
After the waltz in the stately ballroom hall
My partner and I leave to walk
Embrace laugh and talk
Through

Premium MemberBallroom Dancer Heaven




Here on the dance floor ready to begin.
My turquoise sequined gown
just meets my shin.

I love the feathered boa that
encircles my neck.
I look as stunning and bright as 
moonlight on a ships deck.

And you, yes, you my Prince of Dance, 
so divine.
With lifted, chin, suave hair,long tailed 
tuxedo and on your back, number nine.

We will do

                     pirouette like tornado

Premium MemberInternational Dance Competition

My dear, have no fear,
For we shall all cheer.
Your perambulations and oscillations
Shall rouse the nations.
Their national anthems played.
The judges' scores displayed.
Remember it is only a dance,
So give it a chance!

Ballroom Lust

Her red dress
Pressed
To that beautiful black skin,
She looks like a forest fire
Racing up a mountain top

Burning up

She cannot stop
Her wild curves
Engulfed in flames.

She smolders
In a corner
Of the ballroom,

My eyes,
Like two emptied water glasses
On a tray,

Gliding by
On the shoulder
Of a much younger waiter.

Ballroom Dance

graceful dips and an elegant leap
intertwined arms and no time for sleep
 then it starts with the classic lindy hop
 to end the dance with the quick stop drop

finally what everyone wants 
for the other dances were only taunts
to the majestic dance with no faults
the one and only, the glorious waltz

couples twirl, couples spin
feeling the

Ballroom Doom

A shroud of dark and eerie gloom
Hangs over the static ballroom
In the air, the scent of too-strong perfume
On the floor, glass swept by a little old broom

An end has come to every game
The paint paper man is trapped in his frame
Behind the glass, his head hangs in shame
Cards fallen off tables, the forks all aflame

With

On a Ballroom of Stars

When I feel alone
a gypsy soul without a home

When nobody 's there 
with warmth  to share
When rattling rains are all I hear

I close my eyes and take a ride
On sugar-coated clouds
I travel far    to where you are.
Far from a  frosty afternoon
One step closer to the moon.

I fly up high to
