Moon and stars beckoning romance to us
Sweet nothings I whispered into her ear
Our hearts undulating in rhythm with our love
A soft melodic thread weaving so gently,
Shiny brown eyes, flooded with romance
Shining so bright against the flickering candle light
Her well manicured fingers on the crystal glass
Our bodies swaying slowly through the night
A serene river of gold flows through my soul
As I gave into her gentle brown eyes
Our souls moving together in rhythm of our love
As the full moon romanced the cloudless night
Not for a second wanting to leave my lady
Hesitantly I stand and walk to the band
For the song they played us five years ago
I want played on this anniversary night
As I place the tanzanite bracelet on her dainty wrist
A few familiar faces on the way I see
Courtesy being the order I smile and lightly wave
“Hi Stu,” someone drawls, “will you buy me a drink?”
No tonight is our night, just she and I
Walking away quickly I hoped nobody did see
To the band I reach and place my request
Back I walk happily my mission almost complete
Five years its been, with my beautiful gentle wife
The door to her heart she’s always kept it open
Even with my heart and soul always so lame
On top of the world, I dance back to our love seat
Arm in arm we will dance the night away
Dancing with us will the stars in the cloudless night
Dancing my way back two women I see
Sitting with my wife as is they are old buddies
“Make sure he pays you first, gurl“ a heave drawl I overhear
“The s.o.b likes it dirty and freaky but won’t pay!”
“We gotta warn a sista gurl,” the drawler muses to the other.
"Remember with the twins, gurl? He never paid them a dime!"
With laughter they leave, on a clear moonlit night
