Comment from Vijay Kumar V
Pretty Wonderful!
The last lines(All the while feeling awkward, peculiar,
uncomfortable in this pretense
of having a good time) are a masterpiece!
One of the best lines to honey my heart!
Thank you n take care:)

Thank you for your "wonderful" comments. I appreciate them so much.

A very good poem describing a moment in my memory and no doubt in many more.
Afraid someone might ask me to dance,
afraid someone won't.
Well done

this brings back so many painful memories for me, I went to my homecoming dance and didn't have anybody ask me to dance until the end of the night and come to find out the one I danced with and kissed was a pregnant girl's husband. she wasn't there that night because she was sick. he should have been ashamed of himself. good luck in the contest

Thanks for the memories even though they are of an anxious time. You certainly captured the mood with the song title and the reminder of the "forty-fives". Your conflict between some asking you to dance or not resonated. Best wishes in the contest. -Joan

I loved the trip back, each line I read took me to my own memories, However I was the one who wanting to ask for the dance. I really enjoyed this, thank you.

Oh my gosh what memories this beautiful poem conjurs up for me. I was the boy afraid to ask someone. And once when I finally did, I had split my pants out and then couldn't dance with her!

This took me right back. Though I was neither popular or a wallflower... I was the goof ball dancing at a frantic pace to the laughter of my friends in the corner near the bathrooms. ;) AH, good times, good times.
I think you did a great job of conveying emotion here. I could easily put myself into the scene, and I love it when a poem can do that for me. Awesome work!
