PRIVATE DANCING
I feel your heartbeat against me
as we dance to this old song
here in old love's privacy
exactly where we both belong.
And smell the lilacs in your hair
there just beneath my grizzled chin
in the cloud of life we share
savoring the love we're in.
The only thing which might seem strange
to anyone choosing to spy
there's no music playing to arrange
while we slowly weave our way by.
For after all the passing time
our rhythm has found its own rhyme.
