Each one of us has a unique taste in music, whether it depends on our mood or the genre of the song. However, one of the best kinds of music to listen to is what your heart says.
“The Music That Makes Me Dance” is a collection of poems that will encourage readers to listen to their inner music, the music of the heart. On some days, that personal song might be a lilting melody that encourages a slow, somber dance. On others, perhaps you hear a dirge during which standing and moaning is an appropriate response. The poem “African Dancing,” inspired by the poet’s lived experience, will find in you a memory that will make you twirl and spin like a child’s old-fashioned spinning top.
Whatever you hear or feel, standing still while your heart accompanies you in song will not be an option. “The Music That Makes Me Dance” will leave you moving.
“The Music That Makes Me Dance” by Beatrice Perry Soublet is now available for purchase thru the links provided below:
