She wonders
why the music
had to end
and if the dance
will begin again
The lyrics play
over and over
in her mind,
yet the melody
remains silent
for a lifetime

A lovely poem, Lauren. I suspect your words resonate with many of us.
Thanks, Jean, and I assume most people can relate, too. 🙂

This is truly lovely

Thanks so much, John! Have a wonderful day!
Musical words, Lauren, loaded with a wealth of associations. Melody may remain silent, yet I sang it to myself in my own tune…
Your comment alone is musical, Raj! 🙂 Thanks so much, and I’m sure your melody was more cheerful! Have a great day!
Beautiful Lauren. I hear the influence of school in your words.
Thanks, Kim, and that’s interesting! I really have learned a lot in only two semesters. Gosh, my brain might explode with all this new information! 😀

Lauren, that is lovely. You have a magical way with words.
Thanks, Michelle, and because I’m still so rusty (having not written poetry in months), that’s really nice to hear. Hugs, my friend…
This one sounds very sad to me.
I know, Binky, it’s definitely a sad one, so sorry about that!
You are a master of encapsulating life and bringing something profound out of the experiences.
Wow, Ian, you have a way with words that completely make my day! Thank you!
