I wrote the first stanza in a comment to the poem 'Cover Me' by Duckie O., which inspired me.
Shall we dance in the moonlight
On a soft sandy beach
As you sing me soft melodies
My soul longs to reach
Like the coming high tide
Your love covers me
Shall we dance like two spirits
In breathless allure
As soft sounds of a wind chime
Within us feels birth
Of gentle flowing rhymes
Of love without words
Shall we dance through the seasons
And remember each song
For you my sweet melody
Of days never long
Each moment like eternity
So precious your love

The romantic poet. Beautiful words and sentiments. I could share each emotion. Well done. This must be one of your best.
What a lovely poem. I thank you for visiting my poem Cover Me and leaving me the first stanza !
This was my response to your comment :-)
I shall love to dance with you
in the moonlighted beach
If you promise oh, promise not to tread
on my poor little feet.
(they are webbed already, ya know)
That is TOO FUNNY! I did not realize that was your username on Gather. That goes to show how this Duck can be so blonde under her dark roots!
I don't know too many original ways of saying, ' I love this!.' This is such a charming request to any beloved.
'of days never long' perfect line for days spent in love's dance.
