As m’dad used to always say, “Follow where the pirates they lead you.”
Well, I suppose that’s a bit of an exaggeration, as what he actually used to say was quite a bit more dismissive, of both pirates, and people in general. But for this week, and as I continue to take prompt advice from my favorite Word Pirate (this time leading me over to the kids at Write Tribe), I’m pretending that the words written above, did at one point come from his mouth. As to my own mouth, I’ll simply continue saying that I hope that you enjoy this bit of fictional fluff…
How do you do that?
How do I do what, honey?
How do you dance like that?
I don’t know sugar, I suppose I just do it.
Just “do it?”
Just do it. Easy breezy.
But, you’re so graceful. Your hips are so swirly – your twirls, almost majestic!
Awww, thank you sweetie!
And those heels! Why, they have to be at least six inches….
Four.
They have to be at least four inches tall. How do you pirouette so flawlessly?
I don’t know sugar. Honestly, I don’t.
C’mon dad, seriously – how do you do that?
I don’t know honey, I suppose I just do.
