    "A Certain Music"

    Sweet smell
    of Magnolia
    in the air
    as I walk
    by an old church.

    Under a canopy
    of Spanish moss.

    My memories
    like the leaves
    around me
    rustle through
    my thoughts tonight.

    I stroll
    with good cheer
    in this
    balmy autumn night.

    At peace at last
    at peace
    with the past.

    Let's take it down
    to a new level
    take it down
    to sea level.

    I walk
    through
    smoke and fog
    following
    a certain music.

    -Will Dockery
