A Song and Dance In a Pink Coverlet

silly grandpa, singing a song
and a dance with a wink
twirled into a pink coverlet,
In a blink tried to think!


did forget twenty he was not.
red-faced  he doublethink,
Venus, he’d be, goddess of love
he’d dance and please  in pink


a little girl giggled and danced
with her funny grandpa
singing in her pink coverlet
holding his heart to ma


sing a song in sweet harmony
to the stars up above
cheerfully sung eternally
to the goddess of love


moving holding his heart to ma
twirled, stepping and tripping
on edge of  the pink coverlet
took a tumble springing


a cast from waist to his shoulder
with a wink and a grin
fading blue bruises marked his face
he won’t do that again
