Funny how some hip people simply talk and talk and talk
Exhausting all the easy scales and saying nothing smart
We sashay onto the dance floor and sway to a single note
ReMiFaSoLaTiDo warming ever to our sweet squawks
We better stay with the single note that our hearts impart
Anyone who wants the whole show best ReMiFaSoLaTiDo
A consequence of easy strokes–easy to quote the note
A little samba built upon a single note ReMiFaSoLaTiDo

Thanks so much for tolerating me 😃: I want you to know this San-San was
so hard to come to fruition—lots of hair-pulling. It gave me a good workout.
Please click on the link and try it out too.
I hope you enjoyed it, or at least that you liked the choice of music I wrote to.
Thanks for reading, my friends.

Very you share the post. Nice video for music.
Happy you liked the post. XO
Oh this is so nicely written Selma.
Thanks dearly Sadje. 💃🏼
My pleasure 😇
Selma, I so love how you’ve used repetition to emphasize your theme of authenticity amidst a cacophony of superficiality… It’s really effective!

Much love,

You did a great job Selma, both with the form and in reflecting this very danceable (and hummable) tune. (K)
😉 thanks so much for the comment,Madam PoW —I so appreciate it. You gave me a good workout with this challenge. 💃🏼
Love the repetition and flow!
Glad you do. It was a hard form to work with. I think I might try it for practice one more time. Thanks for reading. Xo
Your san-san was worth all the hard work, Selma. It’s wonderful ❤️
You think so—that’s such a sweet thing to say. Leslie. Thank you. Xoxo
💗💗💗
Selma, I loved this! What beautiful flow. ❤️
HI Selma, this is a most interesting take on the san san. I enjoyed it.
Most interesting. It was an interesting challenge 🤨
Thanks for reading.
It was, I had no inspiration until the last minute. It felt difficult 🧡
I just read your post. How amazing. All points mentioned deserve equal praise. Exceptionally beautiful. Well put together.
I also have a guitarist in the family. AND a February celebrant. Two things we have in common. How amazing. Thanks for sharing. Congratulations.
Hi Selma, I’m glad you liked my poem. Once I had an idea, it was fine. It’s getting the idea that sometimes proves hard. My birthday is also in February
