Drum Beat

Drum beat
  The sound of hearts
Beating to love's smooth rhythm
Sometimes a  brokenhearted  tune
  Hoping for another chance at love's oft
 Moody melodic emotions
That dance upon  lyrics,  
   The beat goes on...
  Drum beat
         ~

Joseph. I don't see any congrats here. It should be in the winners' circle. If it's not, maybe it is because you didn't put your name and other info that she might have asked her. This sure deserved a win in my opinion.
