‘Tripping the light fantastic’

‘Tripping the light fantastic’

He pirouetted his pretty partner just like a gainly gymnastic
Feeling free as a bird tripping the light fantastic
A couple of ceilidh dancers in the country shindig hall
Jiggling and a’wiggling having an absolute ball

She is a housewife with two tiny tots, he works nine to five in a bank
A couple of childhood sweethearts with a babysitter to thank
Coz they won first prize in a contest 
A pair of tickets to this dance
and they found a local lass who was willing to watch the children in advance

So they made lovely, lasting memories on the middle of the wooden floor where they bopped til’ they dropped like never before
He strutted like a Scotsman and his better half was his queen dressed to impress if you know what I mean
And when the night was over they were both soaking wet
red as two beetroots and steaming with sweat

Hi Jillina! (that was supposed to be Jillian, but I kind of liked Jillina, so I left it). 
Sorry I've been absent, some of my body parts fell off, and I've been using a great deal of tape to re-apply them, and it keeps sticking together, and bunching up, and...well, you know. 
Anyway, your poem was wonderful! I'm not a good dancer, but I enjoy reading about it. I can slow dance, but that's usually a lot of leaning, and sloggish footwork, so I'm adept at that. 
I really enjoyed that, though, as I always do your writing, Jillina, and I miss you when I'm not here. Next week, I will not be here, for undisclosed reasons(Cheerie knows, but she's sworn to secrecy), so please don't forget about me. 
Great write! 

Matthew.
