2004
the last notes fade in soft tone seranade sorrowful in a way at the passing
‘twas a lively tune at times Like cloggers jumping Heels clicking In riotous noise
Then the cadence would slow And the sweet pause of silence Would wrap in comfort shroud The world weary notes
Only to find a jig Joining merrily with some jive Tumbling into bee bop rhythm Cajoling the complacent to move
And always, there Just behind the curtain Stands the blues awaiting With cool hues dripping
Come, accompany me In final expression Let’s join our voices In boisterous appreciation
Of another year Bowing out most gracefully Can you hear? The fat lady sings . . .
s.a.t.
Every action generates a force that returns to us in like kind . . . let us choose compassion and love

I'm beginning to hear her! Susan, this was an excellent poem. I loved the change in meter with the different types of music. ........jo
