Dancing With Memories

Karyn Indursky

Linen fabric hugs
tender curves gliding
across the emerald
dance floor with
her gloved arms
around his neck
while resting boiling
egg yolk curls
against his steel
body once again
for slowing dancing
underneath elegant chandeliers
catching his shamrock
eyes smiling lovingly
down upon his
beloved wife carrying
his soon to
be son hid
securely beneath her
murky blue eyes
shimmering with freshwater
tears trailing gracefully
down her wedding
ring worn sacredly
on her sterling
silver necklace as
silently she vows
never to love
another again when
their wedding song
fades as she
opens her recently
heartbroken eyes and
realizes she is
dancing with memories.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this while listening to the song played at my deceased cousin's, Anthony Romig's, funeral in 1998 on the radio today. May he rest in peace and know he's still loved, remembered, wanted.
