Poem in Response

Having read “Step by Step“, a romantic poem penned with rhythm by my close friend, the lovely and talented Penny Granger, I was inspired to write this poem in response…

Searching stars
I made a wish
On your name, as we danced into night

Step by step
Splendiferous
Happy hearts, meld as one by moonlight

Dancing in the Moonlight, by King Harvest (1973) – see lyrics here.

      Good afternoon, mio dolce amour, and I’m so glad you like the poem I’ve shared in response to your wonderful poetry, Step by Step – a duet of delight, indeed. I reciprocate and appreciate you so much, my darling lady, most grateful we’ve met, growing together as close friends who love many of the same things, hopeful that it lasts evermore. As I noted on your site, I’d love to collaborate with you, sometime, as well. Sending all my love your way, from the heart, special delivery always ❤️
