Sorry,
Merriam-Webster, but
“Polka” is a
Verb
In our household
Sunday morning
radio
was often a mass
(the only church
my father
attended)
followed (always)
by an energetic
polka band
(the only dance
my mother loved)
and anyone
(Dad, yes, but
also
every one
entering the
kitchen
at the appropriate
time)
was caught up
in an impromptu
laughing-twirl
across the
kitchen floor.
“Come polka with me!”
I’m certain
(wherever they
are)
she’s still laughing
as she polkas
with Dad
(or anyone she
can catch)
