Andy Razaf is a jazz songwriter who just begins to be known by the international public, although he was the writer of hits like "honeysuckle rose", "ain't misbehanin'", working together with his uncle Fats Waller. His songs present typical symbols used in the malagasy oral literature, such as the Bee/honey (Love), the Bluebird (Nostalgy).,

oh my, I don't know if you intended it, but this one gave me a chuckle as black and blue refers to a person badly beat up and bruised . So the last one was quite humorous for me. Cute questionkus. By the way, do I know you? I don't think I've seen your poems before but maybe you were here before and met me and had now changed your name?

In fact, I stayed away for some time...but you were among the first to comment my poems from the beginning, which is a really great honour since you are a popular award winner! But I didn't post that many poems, anyhow...Easy to forget! But I'm back...for some time, at least! Thanks for the read!
