Musical Valentine

Rhythm requires a body
The way melody
Requires a soul
 
Of hands and feet
Or the movement
Of something darker
 
The music of our former lives
Brought home but never listened to
In boxes on the floor
 
But harmony is spherical
One note held against another
A spirit’s kiss and an embrace
 
That goes on for an eternity
When you have barely
Learned to dance
