And still we Danced

I cannot see around this

growing older seeking certainty
In youth uncertainty was the story
fearless-youth savoured once. a connoisseur

and so we danced.

I wish again those savoured moments
gentle forms - moonbeamed glow - sunrise day.
both of us have dreamed this dream - briefly lived its truth

and so we danced.

we are older now
desire un-quenched dreams un-lived
unrequited

and so we dance.

And I know! ‘Moonbeamed’ isn’t an accepted spelling. But its poetry. It fits better. It works.

Open your mind! Painting with words.
