So We Decided to Dance

by Jody Pratt

Eye candy catching glimpses;
like soft wet lips and softer kisses.
A smirk twists and jerks until it bursts;
a smile realized as if rehearsed.

A near miss hints from painted lips;
we imagine ways to graze our hips.
A hand hands over fingertips.
I tip my hat and loose my wits.

An elbow endeavors to turn the tide.
Her smile widens; her eyes alive.
She begins to turn until she spins.
Each subtle movement makes me grin.

A hand placed perfect persuades
this woman to parade.
Emotions exploded from a glance.
So we decided to dance.

Congratulations on POTD!! This sums up the decision pretty precisely, I'd say.

I love the rhyme ... a jewel.

Very well done Jody. Rhyming works and is not forced in any way. Congrats on hitting no. 1!
