Awaken Me
A Poem by Marie Harrison
my love for ballet dancing and playing the cello
Awaken Me
Deep
chords
Of a
solemn cello
Chiseling
swiftly up
And
down the scales
Stir
raw emotions
Asleep
in me
Gliding
my feet
Back
and forth
Swiftly,
like a
Hummingbird
just
Learning
to fly
My
satin toes
Make
rhythmic
Thrusts
against
The
hardwoods,
As my
arms
Soar
through
The air
Strings
Of the
cello
Overtake
Me
They
cast
Their
spell on
My
spirit
Rich
tones
Stoke
the glowing
Embers
of my
Soul

You guided my spirit on the joys of the sweetest chords. I appreciated the vivid picture from such a brilliant description...
"Gliding my feet
Back and forth
Swiftly, like a
Hummingbird just
Learning to fly"
I think i could feel your excitement in the words...that takes skill :)
Nicely done my friend!
