My penname is Kala, but my real name is Sara. I grew up in northern GA and married a military man. We had three sons, the first born being identical twins, then nine years later we were blessed with a third son, all of which were born in Maryland. We were blessed with a granddaughter Camille which has been a joy to us. We now live in the New Orleans suburbs. We retired here and have enjoyed many happy years together.we square danced for years until my husband's health failed and we had to give up the hobby. My husband is bed bound, so a lot of my time now is spent trying to make him comfortable. In my spare time I love to read, and now I am very much enjoying writing my thoughts down on paper, and would love to write a novel. My granddaughter is showing a lot of interest in my writing ,so we are thinking of working together on a novel. I am enjoying exchanging ideas with Webook friends. i am reading a lot of materials on here, and I find it to be fantastic reading. There are a lot of talented people on here. Happy writing to all of you!!

WELL SARA, TIME TO SHAKE A LEG 

Circle eight and you get straight,

And we’ll all go east on a westbound freight,

And knock down Sal and a pick up Kate,

And we’ll all join hands and circle eight.

Swing your partner ‘round and ‘round,

And turn your corner upside down.

And turn your corner like swingin’ on a gate,

And meet your partner for a grand chain eight,

And hurry up boys and don’t be late.

Chew your tobacco and rub your snuff,

And meet your honey and strut your stuff.

Right foot up and a left foot down,

And make that big foot jar the ground,

And promenade your partner around.

Home little gal and don’t you know,

I like sugar in my coffee-o,

And meet your partner and prom- enade-o,

You can’t get catch a rabbit ‘til it comes snow.

And watch that bedbug fly on the wall,

And promenade your partners all.

My wife and I used to belong to the Marwedell Square Dancers and we danced to this call many times. I don't know where it originated from but since it's universal I assume it's puplic domain.
