South American Swinger

I once met a sultry girl from Ipanema Dancing in a South American cantina I stepped on her toes The least of her woes But quickly I departed for Argentina.

You are a unique, very gifted individual my friend! Tango in Paris? I can already picture your suave Parisian moves! LOL...

(chuckling) I'm afraid I would be stepping on those toes rhythmically...(still chuckling). Thanks so much, Anselmo, for your kind compliments and for reading my poems.

Hi Anselmo. Think you have the wrong poet. I wrote this. Thanks for the read, friend. I think I'll probably do my last tango in Paris. (chuckle)
