A Story To Tell

I gather up my words and put them in a song
Where the soul of all voices could sing along
I gather up my words and write them in a book
from all hidden secrets tucked away in a nook
I gather up my words and choreograph a dance
Where I can play and twist every game of chance
I gather up my words for you
Together we can seek a breakthrough.

A rose or a cape sorrel
We all have a story to tell
We all plunge in the same waters
We all shine by the moon and sun,
We are one.

One song, one poem, one dance
Our life poetry in suffering and romance.

Much truth to your words, Natasha, if only people would take a moment to stop and think about it, our world would be a much better place to live. Your poems always have something to say and you have a very good way of saying it. John
