Stately Dance?
I must be out of my mind
your music is insanity sublime
.
But the picture I see
is of us at an old time
ball slowly dancing to
music old, measured time
.
what style dress?
I'm not certain sure
but the music's Celtic pure
.
but style dress?
odder still, for you in
a dress is certain rare,
in levis and rock T shirt
.
Not sure what I'm wearing
but stranger still we are dancing well,
wi' nary a stumble for me
.
once more, music
in my life, hugging arms
and flashing eyes, soul partnered
lost to time, though its vengeance now felt
.
till this day I had hoped
for oblivion when last I closed
my eyes, yet not if by you loved
.
a simple dance in passing time
a stately dance through our lives
this dancer would not mind another
dance around this world of life with you
.
measured dance on ball floor
angel in my arms dancing a dream
one more pivot, an embrace
.
later on the stuff of dreams
was it real or am I dreaming still
this dreamless traveler cannot know
