Dance Every Night

In a world where love is right Hearts go dancing every night The stars in a jealous heaven shine green with envy Your eyes outshine them They see it when we Dance every night, dance every night Though in the sky, stars twinkle still They’ll never match the wondrous thrill of dancing every night The moon is intimidated Your glow out glows it It’s lost its luster Everyone knows it You shine so bright, you shine so bright And though the moon is still our friend It has to hide when in the end we’re dancing every night

Oh goodness, so joyful! I use to dance and dance, I loved it so much! As I grow older and more stoic, as a grandma, I feel I need to behave myself, act my age and all that jazz....but you know what? Your poem makes me want to go into the back yard and dance beneath the stars, maybe Grammy can dance with the grandbabies beneath the moon and stars, maybe I'm not too old as long as I don't try to do disco, or, lol, ballet!! ;)

Oh, wow, Mike. I love this. It brought back some wonderful memories of my disco days. Oh, how we danced! Believe it or not, disco is still very big down in Puerto Vallarta. So, when I go down there I thoroughly enjoy myself. Can't dance like that anymore, but I love watching (over a drink or two!)

Have you ever been to Mexico, Mike? I love Vallarta. I think you would, too. The next time I go down, I'll let you know when I'm down there. I'm thinking I'll go back in January probably if I don't make a trip to Vietnam to visit a nephew.

I was putting your lyrics to music in my head and then started singing 'Dancing in the Moonlight.' (King Harvest) You can't dance and stay uptight. Loved it, Mike.
