A very well-written poem about the dance with the man who gently ask for the dance and made a life-time impression and you took his hand and dance to a life beyond the veil.

Thank you for sharing!

This is lovely! I take it as a spiritual poem... you came to know your 'dance partner' as a young person and he kept you company, was always there for you even though he was in the background for a while... but come the time at the end of your days and he will be with you 'beyond the veil'.
The internal rhyme of the repeat line works well and the poem has an enjoyable flow to it.

I enjoyed your contest entry, Mystery Author. Your repeating line is awesome. It fits in seamlessly in all verses. There is so much more to this poem than dancing. I like the progression of living life in this poem. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Jan

Aww, such a lovely poem. Dancing has a habit of bringing people together in a fun way. You have chosen an excellent topic to use repetition on, it fits extremely well.

Much simpler than triolets or mirrored refrains, this prompt. And the posted poem is in readable rhyming quatrains...looks like an excellent entry to me...

This is a romantic poem about how love, even in a marriage fades and reappears stronger and lasts forever when one lets the love rekindle.

Good luck in the contest. Keep writing

That was so lovely, author, a romance that spanned the years and then into eternity, when they will always be together with no long gaps in between. Beautifully written. Well done and good luck in the contest. :) Sandra xx
