Richard Lamoureux Poet Rhyme

Like Frank

I used to think
I was all that
One dashing dude
A really cool cat

Shoes all polished
A dazzling smile
I knew how to dance
I had lots of style

How is it possible
Am I the only one
Who's stuck in the Eightys
That time I am from

Sporting the same haircut
Wearing polyester pants
Listening to my music
I still like to dance

No longer cool
I guess that's okay
Like Frank Sinatra
I did it my way

Disclaimer: Not really stuck in the 80s and never liked polyester, still like dancing to 80s music.

Jack Ellison October 29, 2012 at 11:34 AM Never was a big Sinatra fan! Guess his rumoured underworld connections turned me off! I'm a little old for music of the 80s except for ABBA! Saw Mama Mia three times! Richard Lamoureux October 29, 2012 at 12:34 PM I am a little young for Frank but did enjoy some of the old black and white pictures he was in. I can see the appeal the guy had swag and sure could carry a tune.
