Give me a word and I’ll give you a song,
something more;
a feeling,
a tear or a smile that streaks down soft skin
and clings tightly.

Give me a song and I’ll give you a story,
nothing more;
complete,
round, wholesome and fitting
for you to hear through the music.

© Sarah M., Blairsville, PA

Writing about music is tough! I give you props! (I think I actually have a quote inside my music folder that reads "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture." Can't recall who said it though...) anyhow, keep up the good work! And please do post what you wrote in your grandmother's bathtub.
