The Dance

I see you from across the room,
it's as if the music stopped
and there's no-one else
but me and you
you make your way
through the crowd
just to say hello... and...
"Can I have this dance"
I say yes
and it feels like I'm a princess
dancing on my tower
and you must be my prince
because I feel like I'm on
top of the world
we never say a word,
just dance,
and look into each others eyes

Oh how I loved the dance!

Simple and sweet. Reminds me of my dancing days. :)

[CagedBIRDsings]

Sweetly tender, though I have two left feet, I still find joy in dancing with people I love. Beautifully Written. :)

A proper dance can allow the mind and body to know happiness. I like the emotion of happiness in the pleasure of a dance and a good dance pardner. A excellent poem.

Now when I have nothing to say as I dance, I won't feel awkward, I'll just dance.

This is romantic and sweet! Also very beautiful and it flowed very nicely. I could see it in a song. It also reminded me of Taylor Swift and her song Enchanted. One of my favorite poems of yours! :)
