I remember the details of that night
The swing music as we were dancing
Walking in that park under moonlight
Taking your hand as we went prancing

Landing on a bench with natural ease
My arm slid gently `round your shoulder
Having not a single fear that we should freeze
The increasing cold broken by our warmth much bolder

Ever so softly -- kissed your lips
Your fingers flowed smoothly through my hair
Down my hands ran to your hips
Pulled you close without a care [comments] => 3 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 2 [informant] => travisk [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

On a night not long ago

i really enjoyed reading this poem however i the word prancing kinda feels out of place to me.

yeah, I think 'romancing' is much more appropriate, though nothing would save the poem at this point

AND? man, don't keep me guessing! Seriously, a sweet write that connected me to a few of my close encounters. Thanks for your comment on HBD. I'd swap the feelings that inspired this poem for the ones that led me to write mine anyday.
