Poem in Response

Having read “The Dance“, written by the talented and lovely Floridian poetess, Holly Hunter – in which a beautiful redhead at the Sad CafΓ© holds the light of her heart in her hand – I was inspired to write this poem…

Rhythm in waves
They found the beach
To make the moon their own

Two hearts as one
One dance in sync
In love, never alone

Update: I’ve added a second writing, Poem in Response: Part II.
