MUSIC AND
THE DANCE
Everyone has within them
the music and the dance,
the fiddle and the click of
tap shoe on wooden floor.
Songs haunt our heart.
Rhythm moves our feet.
The beat of the drum is in
our blood, - in our nerves.
The call to war - to battle ….
The sounds of love …
are never that far away
from anyone of us.
Patriotism, laughter, memories
somehow cling to songs, as we
hear them at weddings, wakes
and funerals and in the elevator.
Listen to the sound of music….
Some enchanted evening …. What the
world needs now is love sweet love ….
even if raindrops keep falling on our head.
