Belonging

On October 16, 2018 By Baydreamer - Lauren ScottIn Poetry56 Comments

Do you trust me? Will you
take my hand and let me
lead the way to a place
transcending the boundaries
of our reality? Let us get
lost in the tranquility –
dancing to the majesty of
the surroundings, feeling the
rhythm vibrate through our
bones. For as long as our
hearts desire, this is our
destination. For time is
but a memory. Its existence
leaves no trace on the path
where we tread. There is
only you, me, and the
intensity of our belonging
to each other.

Dear Dad,

Your beloved wife has been with the angels
Your time has now come, our hearts ever faithful

For you wear your wings now, as you soar beside Mom
Two more angels in Heaven, as we play your song

Swaying to the oldies, you both loved to dance
The timing is now for your second chance

(Today is the two-month anniversary of my Dad’s death. The
grieving process shifts from one stage to another. It’s still with us –
we miss our parents, but knowing they’re together again grants us
comfort and peace. These are just two photos of many more that
will be cherished forever.) 💕

Melodious Compromise

Will you take my hand
let me linger in your eyes
while the music guides
as we glide across the sky?

Will you hold me close
so I’ll hear your heart beat
as we waltz beside the moon
with our bodies in sync?

Will you kiss me like no other
lowering my defenses
as we slow dance above the clouds
stirring up my senses?

And when the music ends
we’ll still dance, you’ll see
I’ll then do the giving
Let me make your heart sing

Dizzy in my head

I was cleaning up the dishes from dinner,
listening to a cd our son had made for us
and this song started playing.
My hubby came in, took my hand
and we danced in the kitchen.
I know this sounds corny
and we sound old, but we’re really not that old!
We both love to dance;
we used to go dancing all the time,
bk (before kids). Needless to say,
it’s been awhile,
so this was just a nice moment. ♥

“You make me smile like the sun, fall outta bed
Sing like a bird,
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like fool,
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold,
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile”
