Creature of Rhythm
Even when she was too small to speak
My daughter was dancing to the rhythm of the music
And danced away in a party
With no hesitance
But she can not do it now
Too much aware of her environment
She danced when she was really young
As if it is natural to dance
Natural to response to rhythm of the music
I wonder how that got into us any way
Rhythm in beats in all languages
Soft, hard, noisy or hearth wrecking
All in repetition
All in rhythm
