The Last Dance

While careening with Carene, a boogie-woogie with Wanita, wow! Then, a whirl with Pearl, a jiggy jig with Jacqueline. At intervals rhumba with a Rosalie. An experimental ballet with Bonnie, Bob, and Blaire. Thanks, Charlie, for the Cha-cha-cha! A quick shimmy with Shailene, disco with a duchess prancing with a prince, and quickstep with a queen. A charleston with Cherise before long, samba with Sabrina, a quick jive with Jennifer, followed by a tango with Tasneem. Pole dancing with Priscilla, Poppy, Penny, and Pandora. Kuchipudi with Kahini and kizomba with Kabibe. Conga with a coven flamenco with old flame, what will be my last dance? Danzón with the Devil, I expect.

Extremely clever and delightful, Terry. I enjoyed it from the first dance to the last. I'm sure Craig will enjoy this one, too.
