Poem. a Funny Limerick

A Funny Limerick

My love of dancing….


When I was young and in my prime

I’d be dancing all the time

With Elvis, the Beatles and Buddy Holley

Good for toe tapping really makes you jolly

It’s my style of music and is still going fine


The years rolled by and when there was a chance

I’d be off to enjoy a good country-dance

Although mid-age with less time to spare

I managed to sneak off to a gig somewhere

Never forgetting many a tricky prance


Now the twilight years have finally arrived

My love of dancing has surely survived

With fitness good and twinkle toes still there

Now only socials and parties to practise my ware

Somehow my love of dancing has thrived.
