Dancing

D o you feel the urge to move A nd sway in a rhythmic way? N eed to let the vibrations flow, C ulminating in your toes? I nclined to jump out of your seat, N ever missing that base beat? G ood to meet you...let's dance!

Hello Darlene. I had such an urge to dance last night, I hopped up in the pub to dance alone. I fully intend to repeat the show again this evening.

It's hard not to start moving once we hear the beat. Great acrostic, Jean! Best wishes in Bobbie's contest, Carolyn

I just love it Pashang! It's what I will miss most when using a Zimmer frame.

Good morning and thank you Greg. Like you, music is in my DNA as my dad was a musician. The local dancehall owner said I was the best dancer. I take a retrospective bow.

Such a shame Andrea. It will have to be a slow waltz for you I'm afraid.

Very apt for the word play theme, Jean. I enjoyed the dance moves you articulated.

Thank you Vijay. Sometimes at work, when I see the pharmacy porter coming with our drugs I sing "Hey Baby won't you take a chance... say that you will let me have this dance" And he does!!
