End of Square Dance

Echoing though out the might Distinct songs fill the electrical air Chords of varying tones dance around the guests Bagpipes play melodic tones rich and smooth Mystical rhythms and beats all of its own Feet tapping as the music takes hold and stirs the souls Waiting for the music to command them Through the vibrant music a strong voice calls out Telling of the moves that should be followed Familiar voice guiding everyone who attends Keeping the flow smoothly going Laughter travels through the air All has changed now - those magical days are gone Music has stopped playing on the selected nights Laughter has faded silence now resides here The familiar voice that once called out – silenced out loud forever In a distant part of an aching sorrowful heart A song and the voice – the memory of a dance Silently play over again every day now Such a solemn and grief filled time – memories are all that remain
