Velvet embrace
Couched in the velvet embrace
We melt into the violin stretches
We mark the strong notes, the bandoneon makes
Then stretching the pause as if we had
All the time in our lives
catlike brushing, sensuous steps
We disappear in the embrace.
Become one to tango
When the music finds a way in
Breathe in the flow breath out the music
The winding axis brings the turn
The touch will pause the moment
Suspension infuses rhythm into silence
The wind rustles the leaves
The trees swing to the rhythm
We hover like the hummingbird
He lingers in suspended time
Before he pivots in midair, changing direction
We reconnect, by embracing the music
My partner uses the moment to adorn
The mysterious flapping of wings
Around the foot gracefully planted
The music turns the leader who only leads himself
And becomes the follower .
