Dance With Me Sir Skeleton

by Ren   Oct 16, 2005


The moon is full,
The music beats,
Dancing slowly,
I feel the heat.

Wearing the scarves,
Of a lullaby,
A full moon rises,
Against the tide.

Feeling the vibrations,
Rise from below,
A sweet melody is calling,
Promising a show.

Shadows emerge before me,
Crying out in pain,
Thunder splits the sky above,
Threatening to rain.

Soon in the darkened distance,
A new shadow appears,
And in a flash of lightening,
The fog suddenly clears.

His movements are flawless,
As he twirls in the sand,
He bows before me,
Asking for my hand.

Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
Right where we stand,
Guide me gently with your touch,
And across this forgotten land.

Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
And I will obey,
Let's live for tonight,
And forget yesterday.

Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
I love the way you know,
You understand my regrets,
That even time can't show.

Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
Dance, Dance, Dance...
Let me see you swing,
And watch me prance.

Dance...Dance...Dance...

To the sounds of death,
To the roads of no where...
Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
If you dare...
Dance with me,
Because no one has a care,
Anywhere.

Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
Until the sun shows,
Dance with me,
Until the last we will know.

Dance with me Sir Skeleton,
Dance, Dance, Dance...
Let me see you swing,
And watch me prance.

    "Dance with me sir skeleton" - what a brilliant title, Ren - one of the best I've read on the site, lol.

    This is excellent - your rhyme and flow here is, perhaps, the best I've read from you so far. There are some excellent lines in here and wonderful imagery.

    Take care and all the best,
    Ben

      Hey Ben :)

      Thank you so much! You just made my night after an awful day. This is one of my favorite poems that I've written. I had forgotten about it for the longest time until I finally got back on here and went back through my poems.

      Thank you so much for your kind, uplifting words :)

      Take care and have a wonderful night,
