Live

Let the girls dance

and let their frills and ponytails

brush our arms and elbows.

Let the music play

and our hearts

beat with honest intention.

Let the mood take you away.

And when there’s too much noise,

fade into it and make more!

And let there be joy in every corner

of your home.

Let drunken laugher echo off the walls

and love shake them of their sullen stature.
