PureDWTS Season 19 Week 1 Poem: “Shaking 19 Seasons In The Ballroom”

It’s our resident poet, Lois!! She’s back putting week one all together with one of her fabulous poems….

SHAKING 19 SEASONS IN THE BALLROOM

19 Seasons shaking in the ballroom, spicy, peppery hot
The opening seasoned with a new feel, hitting the spot

Tom and Erin took their places as Hosts Extraordinaire
The judges became four, Julianne filled the fourth chair

The entire cast featured, with rousing spirit to Let’s Go
The time finally here for the magnificent ballroom show

The dancing pairs introduced to applause and cheers
Each season showcased many pairs through the years

The pairs shook off nerves, rising to their dancing feet
Their feet soon keeping the time to the dancing beat

and…

WELCOME BACK RESULTS SHOW!

Welcome back Results Show, very pleasant surprise
Two nights of dancing, more spectacle for our eyes

More music to liven the senses, tap-tappin’ our feet
More dazzling dances to keep dancing to the beat

The opening was a sultry, a steamy, a sexy ladies show
Shining like stars, a stupendous, mega-hot golden glow

Backstage drama, pep talks galore, nerves, fears, tears
Telling why they chose to dance, sharing with their peers

The encore was awarded to Witney and Alfonso’s Jive
The ballroom shook to the rafters and really came alive

Mark and Witney danced artistic and beautiful to behold
Smokey and Aloe performed a duet, a story in dance told

Allison, Keo, Artem displayed astounding body and soul
A selection of pros joined them, so incredible as a whole

The time came to bid adieu to a pair, their time would end
Lolo, Keo said good-byes, going around the dancing bend

Week One is now in the annals of Dancing With The Stars
We will greet next week with excitement, raising the bars!

WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE IT BACK EACH AND EVERY WEEK!
