Love Waltz Poems

A Haunting Waltz

As I recline, wearied, on this eve so dark and dreary,
Whispers in the shadows, tales of Victorian eerie.
The moon, a spectral lantern, spills...

Sway like the breeze
On a spring eve,
Watching the flame
Of the sun,
How can our eyes
Ever leave here,
When Nature has
Burned through
Our soul.

Speak with the eyes
That serenade me,...

Nocturnal melodies flow up through the oaks, birch and pines
Hues of joy pour over melancholy of a dark foreboding
Music lingers on the heart who knows...

Where darkness bleeds its prayers
Over my spirit, blinding me
With the illusions, the images,
Blurred visions of yesterday, betrayed
By the silhouettes of promises,
Unafraid of the cool, clear...

The cardiac dance, a waltz of hidden passions,
has made our feeling a vibrant creature in a fraction of time,
O, celestial flyer, from the vault sprinkled...

Autumn waltzes,
in the maple trees,
As the ballerinas,
And gypsies,
Are combing,
The waves and their hair,
With their love,

Let the golden leaves,
Bow in the vines,
Of the wind,

And the vineyards,
Warm...

It sounds like laughter, the wind,
Softly rustling leaves, prayers
Fading silence, busy rush
Gusts of light, dancing

EARLY POEMS XXI - JUVENILIA

Dance With Me
by Michael R. Burch

(circa age 18)

Dance with me
to the fiddles’ plaintive harmonies.
Enchantingly,

You
waltz, RIGHT
in.
Such poise.
That sly smile,
defined
chin,
and pair
of bright, blue,
sparkling eyes.
Bedazzled,
my mind,
hides.
Yet you've
seen ME. And...
do greet
me,
with a
KISS.

In my dreams of love
we always dance a waltz,
matching steps,  eyes in askance.
The answer descretely given.
When the heart is driven,
love must acquiesce.

Snow kissed breath, whispers
A caress…
	Into my thoughts,
Forever, always – a melody
Glowing silent and sweet, tenderly
Gentling my heart, my dreams
With warm hopes in hues of satiny
Peace,...

All within the taiga glade,
Their raiments gilt in comely shades,
The burgess shrives vagrant souls.
A garth of god for men alow.

Whereinto the roots may grow,
We wayfarers...

Dancing gently, autumn leaves fall
Silencing moments who recall
Jump in piles, laughing intently
Autumn leaves fall, dancing gently

Crimson and gold, hiding the yard
Breathless secrets in hushed regard
Whispering...

THE DEAD CAT WALTZ
 
Tick, tick, tock.
Fleeing the dancing cats.

Oh those strangled cries, the pleas for help.
Where are the sirens to drown them out?
I'm no...
