In memory of Iris, RIP
Half a century ago, almost yesterday in memory's deepest annals, seems like yesterday, splendidly flashy and vividly colourful, many people too jostling and dancing flamboyantly, was the 60s after all,...
Along the brightly star sprinkled dance hall, my garden as it was, seemed so beautiful and full of cheer.
Want to dance I stopped and asked, no I don't replied she, how dare you I thought, I'm the King of Rock & Roll, Twist Champion after all.....
A President was shot the band had stopped, who Kennedy was I didn't give a toss, seventeen I was...
When I held that rose in my arms and had my very first dance, not knowing THAT heralded so much to come...such an abundance of fun ...
