sing it

sing it

A Poem by annie lee
"

let the world hear your voice, know your dreams, see your joy

"

 

 

I came across a quote this week that shot

 

to the heart of me.  I have not been able

 

to put it out of my head:

 

Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us.

 

so I just had to say

 

what is your music?

 

will it rest with you under the earth in the end?

 

or will snatches of songs dart among the shadows

 

of your remembered days?

 

is it unsung?

 

did the words die in your throat before they reached your lips?

 

what is your music?

 

sing it.

 

sing it now.
