Book Details
The Headline is Music for the Heart.
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 moved and moving.
