Billy Joel

The younger moms outside ballet Discuss what's in their lives today. Compare and share's their major goal; Today, the topic: Billy Joel. They've been to concerts, know each song; I'm sure once there they sing along. I also am a fan and yet There's something that I just don't get. For Billy Joel has lived more years Than I have, though in age we're peers. Yet in their 30's, all these gals Talk Billy-talk as if they're pals. Good music, though, of course is meant For all, with age not relevant. Still, these same women glance my way And based on age, have naught to say.

Piano Man. Now that' s good song when you think that it was written from the other side of the piano. His stuff is classic right now I guess with all the ladies. I like your verses Ilene. Great rhythm to them. Well done! Trevor
