THE COMFORTING GIRLFRIEND CREW Poor little Pierrette is feeling nostalgic. Sur la plage, she’d oft look for the boy friend. Her countenance blue — in teen years tragic, yet there’s safety in numbers, with girl friends. Sur la plage, she’d oft look for the boy friend. Down by the Riviera, whilst she shakes off blue sea for there’s safety in numbers, with girl friends. They say, “Won’t you dance the Charleston with me?” Down by the Riviera, whilst she shakes off blue sea. Ne’er perfect young ladies, wild with vigor, They say, “Won’t you dance the Charleston with me?Fancy forgetting boyfriends and her perfect figure. Ne’er perfect young ladies, wild with vigor, dancing and eating all night pizza. Fancy forgetting boyfriends and her perfect figure. Quite unlike West Side Story - Maria. Dancing and eating all night pizza, forgetting mantra “I could be happy with you.” Quite unlike West Side Story - Maria, she listens to her comforting girlfriend crew. Forgetting mantra “I could be happy with you.” (Her boyfriend tried her in a room in Bloomsbury.) She listens to her comforting girlfriend crew. (Too old for her...this love’s imaginary.) Her boyfriend tried her in a room in Bloomsbury. Her countenance blue — in teen years tragic! Too old for her...this love’s imaginary. Poor little Pierrette is feeling nostalgic. 4/6/2018 Silent One’s Music Pantoum Contest All songs in bold from the musical “The Boyfriend” I was in this play in Middle School and I am feeling nostalgic.

These pantoums look a bit daunting to me and I must say putting song titles into a verse is some achievement. You've done this very well Kim and good luck. Tom
