Rhythm in the Night

A mallet beating drums
sends rhythm through the air
my heart is beating
music with a flair

Heart pounding
sign of being alive
blood flowing through my veins
circulating with each vibe

Dancing now
moving with the beat
spirit soaring
each step unique

An artistic expression
becoming one with the time
emotions flowing
hearing a chime

The rhythm is slower
there is a cool breeze
moves following the mallet
spirit is at ease

The music ends
getting off my feet
spirit is calm and tranquil
rhythm is a treat
