Livin La Vida Loca


Oh, the memories of school days from the past,
Those high school days I will never forget;
Happy to recall those gym dances, oh what a blast !

All of us girls loved those dances with no regrets,
Crowding into the restrooms to fix hair and makeup;
Those high school days-  I will never forget !

Oh, for days, new dance steps we would dream up,
Then the day arrives and girls and boys fill the gym;
Crowding-  in the restrooms fixing hair and makeup !

Boys on one side, girls on the other, then I saw HIM,
Madonna was doing the Vogue and we did not move;
Then the day arrives-  and girls and boys fill the gym !

I was ready to show off my attire and my groove,
Then, it happened, Jennifer was singing, Lets Get Loud,
Madonna was doing the Vogue- and we did not move !

Then, I was Livin La Vida Loca, I was on a cloud,
Oh, the memories of school days-  from the past;
Then it happened Jennifer was singing, Lets Get Loud,
Happy to recall those gyms dances, oh what a blast !

Dancing is a great thing. A wonderful topic. How we move in mind and body. What I find interesting is that the poem is a celebration of that connection!

Paul, I can be funny and happy, I have my moments, but of course my genre of writing is dark and sad... which does not equal unhappy... thanks for visiting !!
