Should You Let The Man Lead? Poem by Practicing Poetess

Should You Let The Man Lead?

Rating: 5.0


Should you let the man lead
If you dance, but he doesn't?
If he has two left feet,
Fred Astaire, he sure wasn't?

If he's awkward, unsure
And he steps on your toes?
And it soon is apparent
That the whole dance floor knows?

If your guy plainly is
Not the picture of grace
You can come to his rescue,
And help him save face.

My advice, in this instance,
Is to head out the door
And allow him to lead
Elsewhere than the dance floor!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
...Then, he wants to kiss you
And, holding you close,
He zooms in for the kill,
And bumps into your nose!

Ha ha but who cares who is looking the main thing is to just prance about and have fun, life's too short.

Thank you, Tom, for the liberating advice to be free of what anyone else thinks, and to have fun! To live for the moment, as moments matter more, the older we grow! : -)
