I LOVE TO DANCE

BRIAN & ANGELA

I DANCE IN THE MORNIN' 

When the day is dawnin'

American Smooth in my well pressed pants

I Love to Dance

 

Out and about I make folk smile 

Wallmart dancin' down the aisle

I've scored a TEN ~ but not by chance

I Love to Dance

 

When I'm at work I like to shimmy 

Up and down the classroom or in the Gymmy

I've danced in Italy ~ Greece and France

I Love to Dance

 

Passe Doble ~ Salsa or a Polish  Polka

Up and down the ballroom like a crazy plonka 

Whirlin'  twirlin'  Dervisher ~ in a trance 

I Love to Dance

 

When I'm in my coffin and to death concedo

Please bury me in my best tuxedo

At Heaven's gates ~ Ginger Rogers waits

Like Fred Astaire ~  I 'll grab my chance 

I LOVE TO DANCE !

  • Comment from author about the poem: We all love to dance and little children (especially girls) dance naturally as soon as they can walk. It is a worldwide art form and very popular pastime for millions and every country has its own National Dances. We enjoy these each year at the International Eisteddfod in Wales. We offer distinctive Welsh ~ Irish and Scots Dancing and the very exciting Morrice Dancing and Clog Dancing. The TV Spectacular "Strictly Come Dancing" is the most opular show on uK TV ! I love to dance ~ do you ? Love to all ~ Please KEEP DANCING ! BRIAN.

          This is a FANTASTIC poem! Love your rhyming style-aab. And I love to dance! A wonderful ode to dancing! I like all the cultural references too. Great job, Brian! Hugs in spirit--Christina

            Thanks CHRIS ~ Pleased you enjoyed it ! Thanks for mentioning the RHYMING PATTERN it is in full aabB then ccbB etc ~ the capital B denotes the repeated line "I LOVE TO DANCE" Rhyme Patern and Repetition is very important in classical poetic forms like VILLANELLES which i know you love. Ballroom Dancing is very popular in the UK and children start as young as FIVE when they begin School. As with all the Arts you can never start too early ! BUBBLE HUGS ~ BRIAN
