Melody Of My Heart ~*Marge Tindal*~ Melody of my heart play me a simple song One that takes me back to his arms where I belong An oldie from the past that just won't go away Croon for me a simple tune as he sang for me that day Tickle for me the ivory as he played me from the start Cradle me on music's shoulder draw the bow across my heart Pluck the strings of memory within the chambers of my soul Play for me a simple song that ever will grow old Tympani touch now rising Crescendo met with grace Conduct for me a symphony to ever-stir this place Blow me low in tones of blue Infuse me with melodic hue Expel harmonic tunes cradled in tender hands Play for me a melody Strike up the band ! ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Ah Marge, you make me wanna dance all night! Your words are always music to my heart. Oh, you have a powerful gift...the ability to transport people to a more melodic and peaceful place. --You can either take me as I am...or you can watch me as I go.-- |

Marge, your poetry always sings to my heart. I loved the magical flow of this! I feel that this should be a book submission, it's so well written. But, then again, I've come to expect no less from a gem like you Take care, Melissa Honeybee The beauty of poetry gives me wings to fly |

For sharing all your lovely words, I will play for thee a song it may not be the sound of birds but of my heart it did belong Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Not that long ago Marge you had me dancing, now you have me singing. Great work! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
