DM Babbit Poet Quatrain

It's the Beat

It's the beat
the drumming rhythm reverberating in my ears
that mesmerizing call to shimmy and to sway
here it comes again.

It's the repetitious fading in and out of the melody
beating, entrancing, calling out to me
to tap my toes and dance
wrapped in the passions of the soul.

It's bliss, the utter rapture of the euphony
that harmonious dream that never ends
with every noteworthy play on words and musings
that becomes all that is the wonderment of songs.

Repeat the refrain
here it comes again
beat, beat, beat the drum
this is the song sung.
