Lucie’s eyes are luminous
as we dance to Fever the Ghost
the fly on the wall can’t tell
which of us is laughing the most
both our eyes grow serious
as we speak of the state of things
voices pained & indignant
sunlight flashing off earrings
Lucie’s eyes are delighted as
she plays for me a Brazilian song
“do you really like it?”
“yes I do” legs dancin’ tanned & strong
both our eyes are shining
sippin’ Sauvignon with dinner
as we jokingly agree
lockdown’s not made us any thinner
Lucie’s eyes are loving
music fills the smoky air
we dance in homage to us
laughing freely, without care
