Ancient Dance (A Love Poem by Celestine Nudanu)

Ancient Dance

Under the baobab

We kiss and dance

To the rhythms of 

Ancient love drums 

Beating to alert us 

To the full moon, 

Winking in harmony 

With our frenzied steps 

Our bodies taut with energy, 

Glistening 

With the sweat of our longing  

Simmering  

With the heat of our desire   

Yearning 

For the cool languorous 

Breeze of the leaves 

To set the pace  

As we collide In a mystic, wondrous ritual
