Stopped.

Goldfinch60



There I was writing my words

When suddenly it happened.

Feet started tapping,

Hands started bouncing,

Big smile within my mind.

I stopped and listened,

Listened to this music,

This music that spoke,

Spoke to my soul.

Never heard it before,

But it thrilled me so much

That I wanted to dance.

    A fine write and music Gold.

  • Michael Edwards

    Great write and would love to see you dancing - now to listen to the clip.

    • Goldfinch60

      On the extremely rare occasions that I do dance I still do the steps that I did back in the sixties when groups came to our local clubs, none of this dj playing disco music nonsense, real people playing instruments - great times.

      Good for the body, mind and soul is dancing dear Goldy -- let the feet move is my motto - - great piece.

        Thank you Fay nd so true.

        Well i'm glad you were enjoying yourself, toe tapping and all. Can't say that i share your enthusiasm for the music but that doesn't matter... it's in the ear of the beholder.

          Thank you d a, as ou know there are only two types of music, that which you like and that which you don’t and my likes are so numerous.

        • Poetic Dan

          Dancing definitely is the soul moving freely!
          Super write but I must say I found it a little difficult to sway but like the awesome line from Dusk "it's in the ear of the beholder" all music belongs in this world!

          • Goldfinch60

            Thank you Dan, see my reply to dusk.

              Thank you Neville. This often happens to me as I always have Radio 3 on in the morning, I have written about it many times.
