Blues, Shoes and Dancing

Blues, Shoes and Dancing Saw a terrifying ghost today, apparition of the ages gone by too much sadness in its play dark clouds in a weeping sky! Saw a dead man dancing a jig, headache seeing such lame moves All bones with scary red wig hairy feet were horse's hooves! Saw a fallen warrior cry, misery in his quivering voice Kept asking , tell me why my dying was never a choice! Heard a song that ripped the blues danced I did, but with no shoes! Robert J.

Such a nice read Robert. Kind of funny too, if not for the underlying sadness. Very interesting. Kim
