Music Sonnet

by Elizabeth


One song was sung, one single song was sung,
But one song was enought to make me think
Of past days which away have now been flung
The notes were played from then to now did link.
It was our music, writ for you and I,
By ones that, although we had never met,
Their lyrics to our lives seem to apply-
Their words, our souls, that we will not forget.
In three-part harmony, my memories
Return-oh! happy hours spent with thee
And Time itself does truly seem to freeze
And for one moment from pain I am free.
So long as we have this sweet melody
I will be yours, and mine you'll always be.
