A Drop of Morning Sun

songs from the shows

A song in my heart
is a jewel I treasure,
for music to me
is an absolute pleasure.

Sadly the music
these days isn’t sweet,
lacking a melody,
thudding a beat.

Musicals offer
a great antidote –
try Seven Brides
and Joseph’s good coat,

Grease and The Lion King,
Jungle Book ditties,
gangs in America,
songs about kitties.

Gilbert and Sullivan
and Shall We Dance?
Topol’s lament
or Carmen’s, perchance?

Tunes you can hum,
in whole or in part,
cheering your day
with a song in your heart.

Inspired by Mary Holden’s delightful tribute:
