Jean Murray Poet Etheree

Dance

Dance
I must
Or I will
lose my lust for
living my life like
I was born to become.
My DNA held the seed
of rhythm, and my dancing feet
must pound the floor to generate heat.
Play it again Sam, get me off my seat!

Daniel Turner July 24, 2016 at 1:00 PM You need some footstompin' music! You go girl! Jean Murray July 24, 2016 at 6:36 PM Just back, in fact Daniel. From a foot stomping night with Vieux Farka Toure, son of Malian guitar player Ali Farka Toure. To listen with my body to such amazing guitar playing. Wow! You bet I was moving my body to that African beat!!
