Singing Owl's Friday Five..."comes from the Lovin' Spoonful song, "Summer in the City."
Think summer......are you there? Below you will find five words or phrases. Tell us the first thing you think of on reading each one. Your response might be simply another word, or it might be a sentence, a poem, a memory, a recipe, or a story.
You get the idea: 1. rooftop 2. gritty 3. hot town (yeah, I know, it's two words) 4. night 5. dance"
"Escape to Dance"
A moonlight night,
chilled, crisp - stars in the sky.
After a radiant, summer day,
spent running errands in a steamy vehicle.
Escape to the rooftop,
away from the slumbering children.
Dancing under God's luminary blanket,
in the arms of my groom.
To the words of Old Blue Eyes himself,
"Someday when I'm awfully low...
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
and the way you look tonight."
