YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE DANCING....Friday Writings # 216...Poets and StoryTellers United

t
tearing along
in our little blue van
toby smiling in the back

                                                                     Toby



you loved this song
twas a lovely time in our lives
there must have been more like that

those times have been blotted out
it has been
so  miserable for so long
yet it could be worse
i'm not in gaza or
the ukraine
strangers are kind sometimes
and it's still mango season

  2. Yes, memories do fade over time but a beloved song shared seems to bring them back.

  7. Things were FUN in our childhood days. Interesting but not FUN in our older days.

  8. Here's hoping for good times to return... and still getting to have mangoes.

  9. p.s. I wasn't a super good skater but good enough to be able to skate backwards. And I went skating quite often.
