Shadows play on skin so pale
under the silvery light of the full moon
Come with me my dear
let's play our favorite game
Skin so soft and yielding
hands warm and thrilling
cool breeze lifts strands of hair
Shadows dance on endlessly
Lay with me on the long lush grass
in the meadow where the Jasmine grows
Laugh with me in the moonlight
caressing and cuddling close
Let shadows play in the moonlight
Let shadows dance in the moonlight
Let shadows love in the moonlight
Come play dance and love.

'Let shadows play in the moonlight
Let shadows dance in the moonlight
Let shadows love in the moonlight'

SIGH!!! I love this...so soft and so sweet! Like a whisper upon the breeze. Under the full moon...just touching and being so free! You made me feel with this! I love it...thank you so much...I am going to read again!
