Elegant Sensuous Street Dancers
by Bruce McMillan,© 2014
On a summer night with summer warmth
after afternoon raindrops have washed
the town clean, the streets of Trieste are
full with happy people, all ages
long into the night; it's a party.
On one black macadam street autos
are replaced with midnight dancers, such
elegant and sensuous ballroom
dancers, couples twirling and circling
a small hill of their lady dancer's
purses. Round and around they go as
beautiful dance music cascades down
from the Radio Punto Zero
building. The crowd encircling the
dancers is enthralled and envious
of their smooth fluid movement and their
open passion while the music plays,
lulling the crowd into a dance of
the mind with these passionate couples.
