A Decuain for the Picture This Club

Echoes of Love

by June Sargent



A treasure from my younger years I found

amidst forgotten things we'd stored away.

While sorting through the old and dusty mound

of things once loved, now suffering decay ~

I spied my music box that used to play

the theme to Romeo and Juliet.

The dancer in the box performed ballet,

inspiring me to learn to pirouette.

Restored, the music box is on display ~

Beloved again, she dances everyday.
