Beats Of Harmony Poem by Dietra Reid

Can it be, can it be...beats of harmony?
Beats of Africa...original, United and strong
Can it be...sweet cymbals of Japanese harp
players in the setting sun.
Can it be, can it be exciting piano chords
of a Latin Salsa song, can it be?
Can it be... A light hearted, fun, Irish jig?
Chords, rythems, tempos, octives, jumping
all around the music sheets?
Can it be...people from Africa, Asai, Anartica, Australia, Europe, North Americs
swaying to the same song, can it be?
Can it really be that the piano, guitars,
violins, flutes, drums all playing together
thru out the globe?
Will it be, could it be...Beats in harmony?
