Whirls and flicks her pearly dress to the music of the waltz
dances merrily to capture fleeting moments of euphoria
glides with wings of obsession to touch the apex
taps and turns with gentle moves towards the climax
throbbing heart creates a loud but rhythmic tune
swaying souls gathering closer on the fleckerl cues
sparkling eyes mesmerise her lover by degrees
whisks and twists to tantalise her feelings madly
holds her gently to unleash the pure ardour
entwined fingers transcend impuissant into splendour
Viennese waltz as yin yang magnetises two souls
dance in the moonlight converge them as a whole
