Love Poem: Midnight Dance

Written by: Martins Deep

Midnight Dance

The motion unwontedly gentle
 As if we tango on a silken thread.
 Brimming passions, yet subtle
 Like an emerald serpent.

 The icy December wind
 Brings two halves together
 In the moonlit rice field
 To be their ring bearer.

 This dance cannot be taught
 The secret is with the mute moon.
 Love will be pulling its puppet strings on our hearts
 A moment shielded from the stings of ruin.

 Nature sings to our hearing
 Our soulful sighs scribbles the lyric
 Within will be sparks and bursting
 As midnight blooms on the wick.
