The Minstrel

It was the last song,
That brought tears to my eyes.
As the lights began to fade.
The melody was one of old,
That the Music man skillfully played.

Memories sashayed through my mind,
Of another time and place.
Where I once danced
To that same very tune.
In the bloom of my younger days.

It was the last song,
In the arms of my love.
That our bodies slowly swayed.
The melody was one of old.
Yes,
The Music man
knew how to play.
