(Excerpt Chapter XIII) I will forever remember seein' the flickering firelight in your eyes. It beckoned me to glimpse into your soul. Turning toward you slowly, and gently claspin' your hand, I pulled you to me, and before I knew it, I had my arms wrapped 'round you. We were so close; I could hear the untamed beatin' of your heart. You softly sighed, and whispered in my ear. "Dance with me my Bartholmew." Without words, drawin' you still nearer, 'til I was lost in time and the rhythm of our souls, we danced slowly, movin' to the melody we both softly heard. . .the beatin' of our two hearts as one.
