Fever, Night Fever

With chips and fries, girl buddy Pam and I
Lounged on a diva for night- time cable,
When Travolta caught our TV- tube eyes
Hips gyrating to Night Fever’s wiggle.

Our feet tapped as we looked at each other
“Let’s hit the town and paint it red”, we said;
In a flash, we dolled up and tossed our hair 
Scooting the bar where pop- tunes drowned ahead.

We paced the dance floor wiggling our hands
To the height of beats like ‘ole college days
Then, more late 90s theme songs rocked the band
While starry eyes begged for music ablaze.

The crowd mingled to pass few drinks around
As we jigged along, romping like prom queens,
Till street lights dimmed to imply---‘homeward bound’
No way! It’s Girls’ Friday till morn , supreme!

I think songs and dance hypnotize young girls and like to have such a nice fever at night. Funny indeed. Loved always, my lovely friend, bl

Your poem made me look to our impending night fever, Nette. In our next meet ups let's engage in one. I bet there's poetry waiting at a partyplace much like this fun and energetic poem.

Sounds like a grand time..I have admit though my sister is still mad at me because I took her disco record to "disco demolition" back in 1979. They blew up disco records between a doubleheader baseball game. Needless to say the 2nd game was not played. Hugs Tim
