Charles Messina Poet Rhyme

Dancin' Daze - Dwm

I was movin' and a groovin'... 
At my high school dance 
Twist'n and a bump'n... 
Wear'n wholly pants
 
The band had played some music... 
I was feelin' kind of stuck 
When I saw the kids a dancin'... 
To the disco duck

I had to think of somethin'... 
Had to show off a little muscle 
So I boogied to the middle... 
And I twisted to the hustle
 
In my cowboy boots... 
And my hair all curled and long 
I tied it in a pony-tail... 
As I danced to ev'ry song
 
I really set the tone... 
When my heels had started click'n 
When they played some funky music 
And I did the funky chicken

 
(The dances- Twist, Bump, Disco Duck, Boogie, Hustle, Funky Chicken)

Jennifer Proxenos March 11, 2020 at 11:01 AM Sounds like you had a lot of fun and that everyone at the dance did also! How agile we once were, still we have our memories! A fun write to which I am sure many of us can relate! Blessings and hugs Jenny. Charles Messina March 11, 2020 at 8:00 PM Those were the days :) Yes, we still have our memories :) Blessings..

David Mchattie March 10, 2020 at 8:16 PM I survived the disco era. It was a million dollar experience I wouldn't pay a nickle to repeat. To this day I have no idea what the 'funky chicken' is? Have a great day my friend. Charles Messina March 11, 2020 at 8:01 PM LOL...I love honesty. Thanks for your visit, David. I appreciate your comments. Have a nice evening. -CM
