The tango

Just words

                                 The tango


---

Legs touching legs, body touching body and face touching face.
two body connected in the song.
You are my temptation, my Beatrice.
We allow the Paris nights to show us the lover's tango.
Deep kiss and long embrace lead to deadly and wanted dance my lover.

----
You whispered. White words or black words.
Giving words or stealing words.
Just the midnight confessions lover's say in the mist of the midnight hour.
Love had cursed us and love had blessed us.
Tonight we will dance the wicked waltz.
Fall where life shall lead us, dear lover.

Dear sir,

Thank you for this poetry, a celebration of love.

"Love had cursed us and love had blessed us.
Tonight we will dance the wicked waltz.
Fall where life shall lead us, dear lover."

You penned the ultimate truth of love so finely. Its a blessing and a curse. All we can do is to celebrate it while we can. Just superb...

In life, every scene has its music. And here yours brings about a sacred dance of the soul in the tango. It is a fierce dance, such fire, and your thoughts confess the pain in this blessed burning. May your dance never end. xo

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my friend. I hope my old legs can keep dancing.

[Echoes of Eros]

Just let your young soul always lead my friend.

I have always wanted to learn old style dancing, something so romantic about it and a bonding with each other I feel. Lovely piece :)

[Coyote Poetry]

Me too. I'm lucky. Nick Cave is coming to Detroit. Do you like. Thank you dear friend for reading and the comment.

[Ruth]

I love Nick Cave! One of my favourite musicians, I wanted to see him play here but was too expensive :)

[Coyote Poetry]

Only 70 dollars here in Detroit. I love his song. He is a wild man.

[Ruth]

Wow, it was around £70 here lol

[Coyote Poetry]

Harvey and Cave. My favorites.

[Ruth]

Pj Harvey rocks!

[Coyote Poetry]

My muses for writing.

[Lydia Shutter]

The romance in this one is spectacular, John. Dancing is said to be a vertical interpretation of a horizontal act and this poem proves it. Love...a double edged sword indeed. Wonderful work. Lydi**

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Lydia. I agree. Dancing bring people closer together.

[JoeM]

[Josie E. Cook M. A.]

The wonder of the moment in another's arms and facing each other.
I admire the scene you paint here.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Josie. The dance is where people are not afraid of human touch and movement of two becoming one.

[Valentine]

John, it has been so many years since I went out and danced, you made me miss it. Valentine

Me too. I'm old now. I believe I would only be good for a Texas two-step. Thank you dear friend for reading and the comment.
