Slow Hand

{Inspired by Stanley Turrentine's "Maybe September"}
~

May I have this dance?

In case we should never meet again

I have to tell you - beautiful is your definition

Your hand soft in mine reminiscent...

Of a time tender

A moment of sweet surrender

Dance with me

Slow

And never let go

Spin around in my fantasies

When I open my eyes

Please don't let this be a dream

Hold me close

As if a familiar stranger

And let our memories linger

Like combs of honey

The moon will be my only witness

That no one has ever dance

So slow of hand and beautiful as this...

A Note From Alya!

I just wanted to drop a note to say "Thank you" to all of the followers of this blog and especially my P.E.G.S Poets Contributors! Our beginning is slow, but we are growing into a small family. My goal for P.E.G.S is to build a poetry community website for all poets who truly love to write and have the art of expression. The future and the notoriety of P.E.G.S depends solely on word of mouth, so if you are a first time visitor to the site please take a moment to drop a little note that says you dropped by and by all means tell people about P.E.G.S! If you would like to support the future building of the P.E.G.S website, please purchase a T-shirt. We at the P.E.G.S family welcome you to join us and we thank you for stopping by!Alya and the P.E.G.S Family!
