Hi, Connie

This is a really upbeat poem with your trademark excellent rhymes.

'...Pick up those feet and drop that sigh
and wash those silly blues away...'

I only wish I had some rhythm in order to take your excellent advice.

:) Bev

    Thank you, my friend, for your great review and for the shiny six-star rating.
    You say you wish you had some rhythm? I don't have any either, but I
    dance anyway!
    Thanks again.

What a great way to eradicate those blues! I am old, but I must admit a good tune still gets me swaying and smiling. I like your easy-flowing cadence and your ABAB rhyme scheme.

I most definitely agree. I have always said for me the best stress reliever is dancing. When my grandkids are here, I have been known to turn it up and yell "dance party!" I used to go out dancing, but now it is just me in my kitchen, but it sure does brighten my mood.
Your rhymes flow nicely and you found the perfect picture to accompany your work. Good Job! I love the chair dancing in assisted living places. Many of those probably loved dancing when they were able and this I'm sure brightens their mood and brings back memories too!

    Thank you for such a lovely review, Susan. You mentioned dancing with your grandkids. Last week my four-year-old grandson was here, and we put on Justin Timberlake's "Can't Stop the Feeling." Our little Jack and I were all over the place dancing. For his age, he has some great dance moves!
    Thanks again.

    Hey! We love to dance to that one! Also when the song Uptown Funk came out, my youngest grandson who was about 6 at the time used to call that "His Jam!" and we still dance to it! Those are the memories they will talk about years from now Connie! Keep dancin my friend :)

    Hey Susan,
    I like that you are a dancing grandma too. I looked at your profile and have decided to "fan" you and hope that we can become FanStory friends.

A happy poem, could be a song itself... and a wonderful reminder to us that there is always something we can do to cheer up ourselves or someone else. Very nicely put together... I enjoyed this!
