The Singer And The Song

There is the singer
And there is the song
There is the dancer
And there is the dance

The singer is not the song
And the dancer is not the dance
But both are intimately related

If you listen attentively
To the notes of the song
You may recognize
The voice of the singer

If you watch the dance
Closely enough
You just might catch a glimpse
Of the dancer


(I don’t know where this originates, but I learnt it from my spiritual director, and this is my rendition)

Every

Every story tells a
picture

Every picture holds a
clue

Every clue creates a
memory

Every memory sparks a
story
