Anticipation
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
Your love's the Muse to restless pens and lonely lips
An inspiration to the heart, the mind, the wits
A banquet's delights are savored in advance
Passion's poetry is an invitation to the dance
Lovers share a rhythmic unity spinning in the reel
At once a single shadow skips across the shade
Then breaking out as solo silhouettes are made
The rhythm like the tide immerses and reveals
Conflict, harmony and the textures that we feel
The dance in all its parts creates the perfect whole
Wanting flow, frames or touch, it craves the absent role
Thus separation's longing stimulates the will
Yet steady time gnaws patience unfulfilled
So partners in the wings await anxious for the chance
Life's most cherished offer to enter in the dance
