Music to my ears - dodo

     Jiving and jazz, razzmatazz.
     Jitterbug then rock and roll.

     Both tickety- boo....

jiving in the sixties

jaunty and sad burst forth

Jukebox

Jeweled lights are blinking
Jaunty tunes fill the room
Johnny B. Goode with Chuck
Jumpin' Jack Flash with Mick
Jerry Lee Lewis wails
John Lennon twists and shouts
Jitterbug all night long...

Jukebox

"Jailhouse Rock," pocket combs
Jokes at the burger joint
Jiving to "Jitterbug"
Johnny Cash for a dime
Jumbo milkshake, two straws
Just one more song and dance
Journey's hit, "Faithfully"

Alexander Buffalo

Alexander buffalo can’t dance even for grass. His imbecilic jitterbug keeps leaving many nimble organists perplexed Quickstepping really scares the unprepared viewer While Xander yells, ‘Zumba!’

Jukebox

Jovial playing box
Jam-packed with jazz albums
Jump  in your flats and dance 
Just  let the music play
Join in the bebop or
Jazz without a partner
Jitterbug with a friend

Love Bug

June bug
Jitterbug
Litterbug
Doodlebug
Sweet love bug
Please don’t shrug
Or be smug
My precious darling pug
With you I’ll share my mug
When at my heart you tug
You’re in for a big hug
Let’s cuddle and be snug

Autumn Haiku - Set of Three
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

autumn 

whirlwinds of splendor
 autumn breathes umber blizzards ~
  crimson cloudbursts whorl

gusts of gold tangos
 jitterbug on orange swirls ~
  gales of scarlet squalls

outbursts of amber
 ride on russet fandangos ~
  vermillion downpours

Dancin' Sue

There was a lady named Susan
Always worryin’, frettin’ and stewin’
Talkin’ woe is me’ to old man Lance
Who coaxed and cajoled her to dance

Lo and behold! They could cut a rug
Doin' the cha-cha and jitterbug
Soon the talk of the town
They danced every dance around

Smilin’ Sue found it all so confusin’
That grinnin’ Lance thought it all so amusin'...

Midnight Run

A sultry night, cascading blues dance in moonlight’s caress, through the mossy-laden cypresses. I see a gull flying in the sapphire and white clouds and think back to younger days, when we’d like in the grass and look for cloud animals. As silver moonbeams jitterbug among the waves, my heart beats in ecstasy, to the music of water laughter. La Bella Luna’s a veritable charmer.

Did Dance Them All

Did Dance Them All

Long ago when I was just a teen
On dance floor did create a scene
With walk, shimmy and the twist
And rest which was a long list.

After giving her a kiss and hug
We both would do the jitterbug
And also bird when it took wing
You would find in a dancing fling.

If I were to dance like that today
All my arthritis would get in way
While rheumatism would try to ruin
Everything that I had been doing.

Life Is a Dance

Life is a dance
As we glide through time
With only one partner
Or many in line

It may be a waltz
The mood is subdued
Beauty of movement
Two hearts are in tune

It could be the tango
Latin rhythms reign
Both you and your partner 
Your passions aflame

The mood of the moment
Dictates how we choose
Jitterbug, twist
Or you're dancing the blues

Life is a dance
Through good times and bad
Be thankful my friends
If your heart's filled with glad...

Extra Pizzazz Jazz

Listen to poem:
The oomph and zing of extra spin
adds razzmatazz to shot akin
to the standing ovation din
a hole in one gets for a win.

The cream screams to the top.

The razzle and dazzle of dance 
shake, rattle and roll of romance 
is enhanced by the oddball prance
of a jitterbug jive freelance.

Bebop is king of pop.

Jazz embodies the extra dash
of syncopated mish and mash
adding gems of splish, splosh and splash
improvisation in a flash.

Flip-flop until you stop....
