Window Shopping
Kansas Ave (Main Street)
Liberal, KS USA
I have a great plan
For Saturday night
Don’t be a stranger
Don’t put up a fight
I was thinkin’ of music
& Ms. Tammy Mauck
Waltzin’ Mathilda
Don Gato did rock!
But the very best part
(And, I’m sure you’ll agree…)
Was when we paired off
Hopefully, one chose ME.
And soon we were forming
Four big square pods
And inside those units
(Or was it four pair of quads?)
First couple to my left
(Well I can’t remember…)
But I can do si do
Allemande has no gender
So back to what’ prior
This tortuous drill
Were we sat and we waited
A ‘pre dance card’ thrill
of hope or rejection
When boys came around
Some numbered order
And squeaked out this sound…
‘Will YOU be my partner?’
And here, we first learned
To look forward to things
Now We seem to have spurned
But here once again
I’ve turned to the dark-side
So I will now focus
So time hits my Mark (Hyde?)
So, I saw this great place
I think off of Stone
Where they dance all in squares
(I’m hearing you groan)
I mean it now ‘Fren’…
(‘Course I won’t tell others…’)
But it rhymes with Cen
‘Hard “c”‘ has two brothers
I’ll ask around
Do a bit of research’ing
You can drink beer
(But please….no lurching…)
Your Combat boots fine
I have a nice frock
We don’t need to match
Just channel Ms. Mauck.
And, seriously Ken..
If we dance out our issues
We’ll perspire it “gone!”
(& I’ll bring some tissues)
And then we can eat…
more as food, today’s “goal”
I think Brother John’s
Has some ribs with some soul.
Highlands-pair…We’ll March On
For we do love You, Food.
& If you mess up a little,
I’ll try NOT to be rude.
Will be fun, holding hands
T’least to whip you around
No, that’s not what I mean
I won’t make a sound…
Though I do have a tangent
About the ‘big Hat’
Once up in Dodge
Wuz whare we wuz at.
At the rodeo-‘Rena
(S’cuze ‘Larry’ twang)
Paired horses with Riders
square ridin’ their thang…
It was horses & Fun…
-All kicking together
And on top of these horses
People paired, mounting Leather…
If only we’d taken
This time at the Ranch
Marriage Improvement
The Work and The Dance
So if you come visit
(And I’ll stay in my chair…)
Hoping compadre
Finds me to Pair…
Seriously, it will be a blast
And We can Rock this House….
Highlands School we Love You…
As time goes Marching By…
We’ll Keeeep Your Flag on Hiiiiigh…!
Thank you for the beautiful birthday flowers.
