Fred and Ginger

Just a little fun

 

Fred and Ginger came calling one day

Decided they preferred to stay

We heard the story of how they met

Amazed to see they never sweat

They truly clicked and seemed to jive

Showing thanks just to be alive

How they glided, how they soared

So entertaining we never grew bored

Dances performed so effortlessly

Because they practiced ceaselessly

Tango, Cha-Cha, Jitterbug

That's a smile on Fred's mug!

We mourn the day they sadly died

Such stark reality in the life of a fly

I'll always remember Fred and Ginger

The day they landed on my finger

What a wonderful way of looking at the world! I love how you see the beautiful in the most ordinary or even what most might consider annoying. Great artistic vision!

This is so cute! Are they supposed to be, like, flies? But it got a little sad towards the end.

But I enjoyed this. Thanks for the smile :)
