Dancing In the Round

Poem:  Dancing In The Round 
Edit by:  Sparkle Jordan 
written:  January/2016


I hear 
the sound 
of

Africa's drums 

calling me
to
dance,

in
the round.

Drums -

Congas, Djembe's 
and
Ethnic drums,

sounding abound

upon

the 
circle of fire,

In
the round

where rituals 
are 
born -

I
see
the spirit
of
my ancestors,

dancing
in
the round -

Everyday 

I hear
their drums,

beating 
in
my heart,

and
the souls

of
my people,

dancing
in
the round -
