A Dance of Dances…or Groaners!
Challenge: See how many dance names you can find. I make it 18.
The light shimmered and danced on the lake,
The jitterbugs jived over the wave.
As the shadows waltzed across, moonlight in their wake,
The fox-trotted off toward his cave.
He two-stepped into the lively dark,
Where the kits hip-hopped and twisted.
Excited to see him, they jigged at his bark,
So tango-ed up, their number he couldn’t have listed!
The kits rumbled and reeled and raved!
The fox need to catch a chicken dancing.
In the light of the moon he grabbed it-but it was saved!
He rounded it up and brought it back, prancing.
The kits boogie-woogied about,
Each squared off to fill his belly.
Just a minuet, Dad did shout,
You are all much too yelly!
