Lifting My Mood
In a bit of a funk
I sat down and thunk
Of a means to elicit a smile,
‘Til the old thinking cap
Sent a flash that said, “Tap!”
Which I haven’t performed in a while.
So I dug out my shoes
And wood board that I use,
Found a video there on the screen,
Then I followed the steps
Which the teacher first preps
‘Til at last I could do the routine.
With the music at last,
Just a wee bit too fast,
I was able to tap out the dance
And it lifted my mood
Though my efforts, if viewed,
Would cause looks I’d describe as askance.
