Every Rhythm

One 
from 
itself 
is 
none, 
the self 
defying 
gravity...




Every rhythm in my living soul,

Ever since I first became aware

Of rhythm resonating in the air

Around me, beats the passions that I feel

For you, and I am moved beyond control.

Everything I sing the wind will carry,

Every rhythm resonates to where

You are, and I begin to feel your soul

In harmony with mine, as from the start,

As all that is about to happen has

Forever been: two lovers meet in time

And find they share a purpose, find their hearts

In synchronicity and find their rhyme,

As poetry precedes the poem, as....

   There was a song before this song

   Was sung. There was a rhyme

   Before these words were ever heard.

   There was a place and time

   Before we found our here and now,

   And there was poetry

   Before we wrote our poem down.
