L'aura del Campo

[untitled fragment of a song]

If when in France, I sing and dance
and Merry, she'll dance with me,
we'll sweep the floor, go out the door,
and merry we both shall be.

In London, Toronto, in Lisbon and Oslo,
we'll jiggle and wiggle and bounce.
In Bergen or Bali, in Belfast or Bolly-
wood pirouette, giggle and flounce.

Note: midnight is a cruel hour to have to get up and take down notes before forgetting them! Will need refinement and maybe another verse or two. But these two stanzas establish the rhythm. (Lines 1 and 3: 4 meters, with 8 iambic beats; lines 5 and 7 with 4 meters but 12 beats. A musician would correct me, I'm sure.)
