A poem of love, life, and tragedy but mostly enduring love.
Danse de Vie

.....*Vignette3*.....

The calm and quiet shore was kissed
By the sleepy, shrouding, evening mist
And as I walked there near the sea
A gentle voice did call to me...

"Come, join me in the dance".

I wandered from the quiet shore
Through emerald mist on forest floor
And, as gentle rain began to fall,
Once again I heard her call...

"Come, join me in the dance".

I came upon a rocky nave
And there inside this hidden cave
A thousand candles and sparkling eyes
As blue as summer's cloudless skies.

I saw a maiden standing there
With sapphire eyes and skin so fair.
Such beauty took my breath away
And once again I heard her dare...

"Come, join me in the dance".

Outside beneath starlit skies
We danced before the sparkling eyes
Danced beneath the full moon bright
Throughout the seeming endless night...

My heart had joined her dance.
*SuitHeart*
All the Summer I would spend
Believing it would never end
The wondrous joy of love we'd share
'Neath summer's sun in the salty air...

The waltz of love we danced.

With the Autumn breezes came
The promise of another name
A child that my queen would bear
A princess whom our love would share...

She joined us in the dance.

Cold and wind and frost arrived
On Winter's stormy, troubled tide
The music stopped. It would not play
Princess and Queen had gone away...

Death had joined our dance.

From worlds beyond their spirits call
From memories and ghostly halls
"Live for us and do not cry
For if you live, we will not die..."

Forever we will dance.
*Vignette5*


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

These two beautiful souls passed on before me and I live in the shadow of their memories, waiting for the time when once again I hear...

*SuitHeart*


"Come join me in the dance".
