Music fills your body
with a warm sensation
like drinking hot coco
on a January morning
you will find occasional
marshmallows
sweet bits that wake you up
from a deep
warm sleep

Music

Sometimes
the hot coco gets cold
and you suddenly realize
that your cup is empty
that the music is over
and you'll have to get
some more later
but not now
not now

  2. Jillian - I really like this poem -- the way that it makes you almost "taste" music -- it's wonderful what poetry can do -- and you have such a good ear for the sounds of it, too. I really like this one.
