A Delicate Balance Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Juggling musical rhythms in a poetical mind, creating chaos
of some kind, but a good one that's taking a magical journey
into another movement taking people into another place.

Music touching an interior spiritual dimension rising into
heaven when all of a sudden everything opens wide and life
jumps strictly into a land of fantasy.

Taking dreams into reality, forgiving nothing, for there's
nothing to forgive in depths of music and its coded rhythms,
a delicate balance of equations being played to exact formulas.

Switching places, music continuing to flow in spite of it all,
narrowing the plain, co-existing in the same measures of an en-
titled outlet of jazz, wanting more, hoping for the beauty and
wonder of many talented musicians on stage.
