One More Time

 

There’s a song that waits

Behind locked gates,

Knowing its freedom is near.

 

It sings of sorrow

And of new tomorrow,

It sings of courage and fear.

 

It sings of me,

It sings of you,

It sings of the blind and the wise;

 

It sings of love,

It sings of hate,

It sings of life and demise.

 

It knows no bounds,

As its melody sounds,

Through the heart and soul of mankind.

 

It’s a song that has waited

And watched as hope faded,

Yet it sings, yes it sings,

One more time.

Reminds me of another favorite write by you, "Broken Melody II" except on the flip side. This is a lovely poem and, to me, the change in rhyme scheme goes unnoticed. I think it reads well, flowing naturally from your heart. You have breathed life into song, making it seem alive and real.

DC ... I am usually turned off when a poem tries to change it's rhyme scheme in mid poem, But through spot on meter and important message, you have overcome my bias. I love this poem and I love it's message, for without hope ... aren't we all just upright corpses?

It sings of love,
