    fleeting dance

     life is temporary
    in this sukkot
    in this body
    this shell

    this heaven and hell
    lost in love
    found in hate
    all part of this fleeting
    dance

    give me coffee and smoke
    and your hand
    we will waltz
    in the rain
    dancing naked again

    give me sanity and pain
    and the prophesy of your love
    that tender caress
    our own blessedness
    waltzing with you
    naked in the rain

    thank you for your kind words! sorry it took me so long to read them. laughter, tears, waltzing....life.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
