Selebrate -

Soon we made our way

To the place the people came to celebrate

Smile as I pass by

Raise their drinks, congratulate me, shake my hand

Far away I heard a violin playing

A woman in the distance gently swaying

The way that lady played

She conveyed her every feeling with her song

And my, how she filled the room

Sweet perfume could not possess

The air in quite this way

She danced about the people while she’s playing

Everybody laughing, dancing, singing

The sound she made was simply mesmerizing

The look she gave, no less that crucifying

As the music played

Like a snake of fine silk and black smoke

She began my way

The closer she wandered near

I could hear the faint sound of rattles shaking

When her eyes met mine I recognized her

The woman from the painting…

Yes, she looked just like her
