Celestial Showcase

Come dance with me beneath the stars
Under a vast night sky peppered with light
Breathe in the magical night air
Begin the whirlpool waltz

Follow the pattern of a distant galaxy
Twirl me round and round
Match our movement with the graceful outline
Of stars even science can’t touch

Hold me close under the moonlight
Her luminescence our only spotlight
Virgo and Venus our only audience
The stars in our eyes the only concern

Regale the late night orchestra
Owls and crickets conductors of the eve
Starlight and a midnight breeze
Sway the veil of beautiful mystery

The very nebulas we admire
Keep a vigil over our dance
Casting new light on every footstep
Watching each inhale of breath

The shooting star applauds us
Spreading a trail through the dark sky
Leaving with two newly made wishes
That an encore is close in sight

Very magical and vivid imagery you evoke here. It's nice to see something that is skilly put together on this site:)

Sometimes the night makes me want to curl up in the mud and die.

This one said a lot... now comment or review is the question?...

I prefer comment this time... I listened to you... not just heard - and there IS a difference. You're worth the listening to.

Take care,
Chris

"Match our movement with the graceful outline
