Prom

The night is young and so are we,
Let’s fill with glee
The dancing floor
And our hearts’ core

For it’s our time to celebrate
Our love’s so great
Under the ball
With lights that call

Partners who could dance through the night
With arms so tight;
So guide the way
To you I’ll sway.

    Hadn't heard of this form and didn't check to make sure you conformed to it! It's a nice write, lively and full of a feeling of youth.
