 SWING TIME (A Candy Heart Poem) By: Noah Eaton 2/13/03  Hey baby, the way you look tonight Seems to get my feet tapping to the beat On this sapphire balustrade we'll dance in the moonlight Lindy-hoppin' with the jitterbugs in this East Coast Swing 12 bar blues, darling, you give me the St. Louis flu Shim Shammin' and walkin' that walk with Tacky Anne Baby, I think I'm madly in love with you It's not in the cards, it is all there in your hands They say "to know how to dance, is to know how to control yourself!" I felt those Bojangles of Harlem at first glance How your silver sandals boogie-woogie like church bells I've got you under my skin And your heart beats with mine in syncopation God knows swinging ain't no original sin Wait till I add in the Latin twist You pick me up, you dust me off As far as I am concerned, with you it's always swing time You're my winners dance, my beach bop lollipop Turn and shuffle with me to the daylight...  "You'll find something that's enough to keep you But if the bright lights don't receive you You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20 |

Your poem made me smile. It had a lyrical, flirtateous aire to it and it was simply divine. |
