The Dance Never Ends Poem by Kyle Schlicher

spirits illuminated

grand ballroom
staircase
descending deep
into the night

willowy waltzing
shadows
three quarter time
keeping in step

light flowing
with the beat of the night
restless laughter
reverberating

breathless comes daylight
beginning to intrude
upon the gaiety
of the ghostly soiree

sunlight sneaking
through curtains
as spirits fade away
as whispers echo the dawn

tomorrow night my love
