The Crystal globe glistens softly
spraying light erratically along the walls
yet in one small place it tells a magical story
of fate granting one final dance.
The lights begin to dim as the music softness
when the doors glide open in majestic fashion
and she walks, the embodiment of beauty
her eloquent dress sparkling like gold.
slowly she makes her way to the rooms centre
her golden brown hair flowing tenderly
down the caresses of her back
and her bare arms embracing white gloves
the gentleman makes his way silently to her side
clad in a black suit with hair slicked back
as he approaches, his cover button glows
shimming as if it capturing the light of the moon.
the music gently plays amongst the crowd
as the gentlemen appears behind his love.
Softly he traces a finger down the nakedness of her shoulder
and down her arms, landing upon her thigh.
He spins her to face him as he takes her hand in his
his arm wrapped around her thigh,
she holding herself to his embrace
as they silently glide throughout the room.
she spins out, returning with her back to him
as she guides his arms down to rest upon her abdomen.
they slowly dance to the tenderness of the music
as it softly starts to come to an end.
Quickly he putts her into a dip as she strips a gloved hand
resting her naked fingers upon his cheek they stare into each others eyes.
and with the stars shinning through them they embrace
two lovers sharing their final dance.
in the gentle reflected light of the moon upon the Crystal globe
shimmering upon a wall.

This is so beautiful. If flows so elegantly. You've described each detail well enough to allow me to visualize each moment. I could even almost hear the music and the sound of dancers flowing to the music and distant chattering... the cool misty breeze on her back as she sways to the music...
Thanks for sharing.

Great scenery...it truly feels like a moment...the screen zooming onto the crystal ball, shifting outward to expose two lovers...spectacular use of simple yet thoughtful lexis...my favorite lines:
