Of Fun and Friendship (Thursday Poets' Rally Week 27)
bound by friendship
ties that are deep
two decades of sisterhood
an unbreakable loop
"raise the roof!"
that was the mood
a night of 80's fun
that was the mood
and disco jam...
and tights...
of red stilettos
of red stilettos
and loud echoes...
in a room full of prancers...
one night of break
for sanity's sake!

It was Kadayawan Festival in Davao City last week. Fat Bobby's hosted another 80's party called Retro Friday (August 20) and even though I had an on-and-off fever, I couldn't pass up the once-in-a-blue-moon bonding time with my equally busy BFFs and TFFs. And so, FUN FUN FUN we had that Friday night! Disco balls, laser lights and wet (as in sweat) look... it was soooooooooo 80's once again!!!© Bing (PinkLady) 2010
A BIG thanks to Jingle and the other poets who voted for me. I really appreciate this beautiful Celebrate Poet of July Award. Thank you so much!

hi thom, those big smiles couldn't hide how much fun we had that friday evening. then sunday night came and we had to rush my son to the hospital for acute appendicitis. he underwent appendectomy the next day. :( it was actually a long roller coaster emotional ride for me last weekend.
awesome :d

keep rocking :D
