"Music"

By Dawn Huntley Spitz, Pen Woman Letters

It's not often that our Letters members write about music but Dawn Spitz has more than a bit of both in her. Please enjoy her consoling poem.

A song can soothe a sorrowing soul,

Can help a heart to heal,

Can make a broken spirt whole,

Awaken us to feel.

A song is like an angel's wings,

It touches us with grace,

And all the joy that music brings

Can fill an empty place.

Music is a warming thing

To cheer the darkest night

So come and play your pipes and sing

And dance into the light.
