Mr. Bojangles

That song makes me think of my Nana...

She named her dog Mr. Bojangles...BoBo for short. She would always tell me the story that she named him from this song, and she'd sing a little, "Mr. Bojangles, come back and dance..."

I miss Nana. It's be two years since she passed. I want to remember her as clear as if she was right in front of me, but no matter how much I squint, it's fading. Oh, my heart.

Christmas makes it worse.

I will write to you again, my faithful public, when there's more time. For now, listen to Mr. Bojangles if you can, in a tribute to my beautiful Nana, Lori.

He'll dance for you, in worn out shoes...
