Dancing is my first love
The whirl and spin,
I yield to its embrace,
Whatever mood I’m in!
I hear the music swinging,
I feel the beat,
My movements claim the floor,
I can’t control my feet!
Fine jazz from Benny Goodman
And Lester Young,
Glen Miller’s ‘In The Mood’,
Their names drip off my tongue.
Move to the syncopation,
Steps quick and slow,
Music loud and mellow,
I hear the rhythm flow.
Dancers are always smiling,
Light-hearted set,
So much pain in this world
But briefly we forget.
