Magic.
The meaning lost,
yet playing on my mind?
Definitions hold no magic,
merely words on a page.
When a bird trills a song,
I cock my head and smile.
When a baby gurgles,
even from a TV commercial, I smile.
When a story is simple,
yet poignant, I cry.
When music decorates the air,
my toes tap, I sway, and my heart swells
A shimmer of magic crosses
space and time to unlatch a
wee door in my soul and I am
paralyzed with the joy of it all.
“Believe in yourself and believe in magic.”
~ Theophilus London, musician
