I dance to the beat
of an unknown heart.
her scent is as a
secret meadow
with flowers all abloom.
Let us pick up the drum
ring around a fire,
sing and laugh and
dance to the beat
of an unknown heart.
her fruit is as a
harvest sweet with juice
under a morning moon.
we have never met
she never heard my name
she dances with her
friends and drums
to the beat
of an unknown heart.
the night is still
and silent
sleep and dream
asunder
eyes open
in the dark
our bodies lie
miles apart
yet each we smile
and recall a dance
to the beat
of an unknown heart.
