The Magic of a Song

It starts as a poem in the heart of a wordsmith.
Written down, spoken aloud.
Edited.
Rewritten.
How does it roll off the tongue?
Is the cadence "right"?

Does it tie you "to the kitchen floor"?

Once it works in the mind and all is in its place.
It is set free for listening.
For interpretation.
To follow and open the mind

Sung by anyone else
With chops, without chops
It overwhelms and the singer is left without any choice.
Just sing it.
It's mine, yours, it's everyone's... everything

Unstoppable.
