Let the Music Play

Recorded music - 
running amok in my brain
mirroring my mood
taped, stored, replayed
Running soft, soothing
Turning complicated, confused
angry, worried or afraid
mourning and weeping 
Photographic moments... 
Give up the fight
Unleash the music
Let the demons rage
Let it shatter your heart
Pray the song never ends...

dang it , Tim, Why did n't you do Dandy Andy??? One lady wrote a poem for me being humorous and I was so appreciative, but she does not appear on the winner list. I fear she took down her poems and left. It was the lady named Alexis. but I forgot her last name, so I can't check out the poems and see what happened!!!

and now I see you have posted another one in the past week. I love music and the way you bring out every type of recorded music and relate it to life, it's a delight to see.
