POETRY
THE HOKEY POKEY Shakespearean Style
O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe.
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke.
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from heaven's yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke -- banish now thy doubt
Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about.
(Daveâs Daily)
To his yearning the florist said yes,
And he opened a store with finesse.
Sold fresh flowers, and now,
His nice shop's a cash cow.
So he's known as a budding success.

Where men consider her charmiess.
But it's worse for a man to attain the age
Where the girls consider him harmless.
