The mariachi band plays a lively jig

as the people glide all across the dance floor.

Everyone gliding and blending together

shades of midnight black, snow white, and charcoal grey blended together 

like stars against the night sky.

Except for her.

She didn’t try to be the center of attention.

Yet she was.

My eyes couldn’t leave her.

Her bright strawberry red dress glistened in the darkness,

It was hard not to be entranced by her grace.
