Lavern Baker

Oh with a soul of fire baby you’ll be crying, like a heavenly choir Tra la la, Jim Dandy, oh how long will it be? I can’t love you enough. You, me and Tweedle Dee together in New York, just a lucky old son happiness forever, the big apple for fun here where you’re no one’s fool. We’ll dance to Ting-a-ling do the bop all night long, we’ll be doing you’re thing ‘Play it fair, Harbour lights’ hit after hit then more shaking till morning bites. Boy love that dancing floor every night this dream of you Lavern and me, crazy man crazy theme my very own club glee every night this dream. © Harry J Horsman 2012

Ah, you fooled me, Harry. I didn't know this was a dream until I got to your last line. The poem reminded me of the many plays I've seen on broadway an the magnificent blend of cultures in New York. Awesome write that provoked wonderful memories! Love, Carolyn
