Last Chance Poem by Deepak Calyampoondi

A lonely night, nobody at sight,
many stars in the sky with their twinkling light,
With the beautiful full moon on top,
Together they reached the lone hill-top.

The place was so perfect, beneath a tree,
it was a perfect time to be carefree.
He took her hand with a perfect stance,
As if he would not get another chance.

A perfect gaze, with confidence and grace.
With a swing he brought her close to him,
a dance in the cold night which was dim.

Their dance was so perfect, close to their heart,
they went on as if noone could make them part.
So good was their dance, yet without a beat,
the heavens opened their doors for the angels to see.

Their dancing steps did take them to the edge of the cliff,
he took her in his arms, an effortless lift,
They swayed into the valley, with their lives as a gift,
to the heavens above, their souls did drift.
