Example one



Come my love and dance with me.

Show what we can do.

The night is meant for romance.

Let’s try something new

something different.

Keep time with the castanets.

A dance we invent.



Example two



Music urges us to dance.

How can we resist

such an invitation

. Soft guitars insist,

it is time to dance.

Come with me willingly

Give romance a chance.



Have fun ivor aka poeticpiers
