The Waltz Poem by Mike Shanahan

Have you ever waltzed amongst the stars
Travelled through the milky night,
Seen a moonbeam dance,
Been to heaven for a night and then dreamed of romance?
Have you ever seen a teardropp fall
Then turn into rain
And then into a storm,
A storm to shake the night?

I have waltzed amongst the stars my lover holding tight,
I have danced the Milky Way with moonbeams in my heart.
I have seen my teardrops fall, then felt the beating rain.
I have lifted to a storm and shaken through the night.
I have danced with my lover true and felt her beating heart.
I have waltzed the dance of love whilst gazing in her eyes.
I have heard the music pure as I held her close.
I have stayed when she left and gazed into the night.

When time is still and memories linger
Sweet music haunting me,
I waltz that waltz again
And feel her beating heart.
