Homecoming


She was so pretty
in her blue homecoming dress


The band played as we danced
I just wanted to touch her
I wished to breathe her in


They played a slow song
We held each other tightly


She felt so fragile
I thought she would break
I felt her heart beating
next to mine as one
We were lost in the moment


She smiled so brightly
like the sun


She brought me there
to her world
We were aware
of only one another
We were captivated


In this timeless embrace
I kissed her
We melted into one another
for a brief eternity


I felt our passion
burning strong inside of me


She was so pretty

This has such a youthful breath of freshness, innocence and naivety about it Dale... you describe the feelings of an 8-yr old... or an 18-year old... or a love struck 88-yr old!! Crisp, clean and... pure. Love the loving fragility of this... like the delicate beatings of the wings of a butterfly. And I like the poetic confidence of writing so "simply" - makes it all the more powerful. TY LOL Kate xx
