Enraptured (Couple – embracing on the dance floor)

Enraptured, encaptured and filled with delight

I can’t quite believe that I met her tonight

Introduced, with smile and relaxed, unexpecting

That someone so gorgeous responds, unsuspecting!

I can’t quite believe that such luck can be true!

But check out her face and her hair – check the view!

A ‘one in a million’, hey, once in a life!

And this one i’m keeping and making my wife!!!

Okay, steady on, it is still our first dance

My mind is in some kind of Dervish-like trance!

I must take a breath and not blow this whole meeting 

As sudden confessions are so self-defeating!

Those words, ‘love’ and ‘marriage’ will often beguile

True intentions or not, she’ll be shocked, run a mile!

So we play the game calmly, with utter distain

Get a grip of yourself – and remember her name!

Ah! At least i have THAT right, so…gentle and fun

There are tactics to measure and use must be done

With finesse and with charm and enjoying each side-step:

A dance as her eyelids explore every bicep!

And clocking the mutual attraction, relax!

The chemistry’s there but the mind is a tax

That we pay, with attention to detail, my friends,

On this, future happiness surely depends!

To catch and retain, be caught and remain

And welcome these loving intrusions

We master our minds and our hearts in refrain

They are products of clever confusions!
