Dance Beneath the Moonlight

Dance beneath the moonlight on the beach

A chance for romance, chance to be free

Of love's power and endurance let us teach

*

Waltz as we face the wind, face the breach

Sway to the rhythm, the rhythm of the sea

Dance beneath the moonlight on the beach

*

Tango entwined over the sand, I beseech

Forget what was, only of what we can be

Of love's power and endurance let us teach

*

Foxtrot around castles, dance our speech

Eyes locked on each other, only on we

Dance beneath the moonlight on the beach

*

Rumba so close, the beat pounds of each

As it thunders the passion of you and me

Of love's power and endurance let us teach

*

In each other's arms, our desire we preach

Locked together, forever in whispered glee

Dance beneath the moonlight on the beach

Of love's power and endurance let us teach

*

Thanks for reading!

Author's Notes: May be my last entry into the challenge. I felt that most of my villanelle entries have been rather sad and sombre, so wanted to try something more positive and romantic.

Also, this song was in my head while writing it and the fact that we want to go to Barra next year. Which has some of the most stunning beaches in Scotland.
