Desires of the Heart

I just want to Dance

Desires of the Heart

He was sure she had no control over her smile

as he set a single rose down next to her empty glass,

He extended his hand in a most gentlemanly way

 

“May I have this dance”

 

She slowly picked up the rose and inhaled of its heady fragrance

Letting the petals linger upon her lips

 

The band began to play:

Stardust or something by Frankie or Tony

He wasn’t sure,,,,,  it didn’t matter,,,

 

Without a word she gently took his hand

And he raised her to her feet

 

She stood close, face to face for a moment

He gazed into those stunning blue eyes

That said everything he wanted to know

 

He felt the blood rushing through his veins

As his heart, beat at a rate he was not accustomed to

 

This woman was going to dance with him

To let him take her in his arms and hold her tight

To move together to the music,

 

She demurely melted into his embrace

With a natural rapport, his arm encircled her

 

She leaned her golden hair against his shoulder

As they became one on the dance floor

 

The music played, his mind was spinning

They twirled to the rhythm of their heartbeats

 

He couldn’t help but close his eyes for a moment

And breathe in deeply

 

His lungs filling with the pure essence of woman

The irresistible perfume of the most beautiful woman

He had ever seen….

 

And they danced to the Desires of the heart.
