Sara Kendrick Poet Sonnet

Laughter and Music Only Sound

Broken levee salt laden moisture gone away
No one at least was washed away drowned
Most have their feet planted on solid ground
Friends this has left me in disarray

Now longing for that very wonderful day
When the laughter and music only sound 
Within the walls of all homes is found
Will that happen before this body returns to clay

Could it happen today before the sun set
Or will it only happen when we hear the boatman's oar
Hope calls me to reach for dreams somehow and yet
Satan wants to sow my field with horrible weeds

When that boatman takes me ashore
Will I still have clutched within my heart love seeds
