Celebration

                          Celebration

     The day the Carnival came our way
     With drum and trumpet and brass trombone
     And all the townsfolk danced that day,

     At that Carnival where I stopped to play.
     Carried along on that arousing beat
     And by that revelry swept away

     To a Magic land upon that  day,
     Where joyful spirits of celebration dance
    And all the people  in rhythm sway.

     In that magical  land far, far away,
     The day the Carnival came our way

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
