a poem about the disco years
Dreaming Of Disco
by sherrygreywolf
Disco Inferno Poem Contest Winner
I’m dreaming of 1979 when disco was king of the scene. I remember me at twenty-one Wild and free and a dancin’ queen. The mirror ball bounces light like flames As it spins over dancers below. Fog diffuses and drifts to the floor, Like smoke from a disco inferno. The beat is pounding, tensions unwind, We're dancin' and out on the town Bodies moving, slick with sweat - Thank God it’s Friday and we're gonna get down. I know we both love the nightlife And I don’t want to let you go. Please hold me close and keep dancing I want to feel the music flow. The club is closed, it’s 3AM We shimmer with lycra & stones The last dance we’re dancin’ in the street; The music we hear ours alone. |

I had so much fun pulling memories from the disco era to make this poem happen! I tried to use as many disco titles or lyric-inspired lines as I could - can you find them all?
To all the disco groups from the 70's - Thanks for the great memories!
