' Waltzing In Water... ' Poem by MoonBee Canady

' I'm Singing & Dancing In The Rain' - You Go Boy, Gene Kelly (smile)

Slowly, The Water Starts Dripping Down
Like A Symphony, In C – Minor
It Dips Into A Deep Ravine
Then Lilts, As A Shimmery Shower

Pitter-Patter, Pitter-Patter
Silvery, Graceful Drops
Never An Unrehearsed,
Ungainly, Odd Plop …

… Into A Puddle, With Panache’
And Playfully Pirouettes
An Elegant Turn, Like Roulette
Then With Suspense – It Rests

Then Promenades, O’ Perfectly
As It Pitches From High and Pours
Onto Our Big, Bright Ballroom
The Great, Night Outdoors

Each Step, Slides Wet
And Rivulets – Wonderful!
So Warm, Yet Refreshing
Really Remarkable!

Slippery, Veil Strains
Like Moist Melodies
Surround and Accompany
Flowing, Fluid Memories …

Of When We Waltzed In Water
Romantic Drama Of Wonder
Smoothly Moving To
Rhythm, Raindrops and Thunder

So Seductive, So Sensuous
So Soulful, So Sweet
So Light and Liquid
On Fingertips, Face and Feet …

Floating On A Silken
Star-Swept, Sprinkled Lawn
We, Went Waltzing In Water
‘Til The Wee Hours Of Dawn …

But Wait … The Crescendo
And Violin-Strings Call Again
Our Blue Danube, Dance In The Rain
Our Own Waltzing In Water, Refrain …
