7-9 GRADE HONORABLE MENTION

A Bond
by Sarah A. Freedman

The strumming of the
Guitar
And the clang of the
Drums
Brings me into
Out of
Myself

And into the
realm of the

Music.

It is here that the

Music
Never stops,
Where the beat
Of the bass is shared
Between us all.

It's the music here that
Listens
To our
Words
And our
Feelings.

Nobody
is hated here
And
nobody
Cries.
We all have a
Bond
With each other.
And that is the

Music.
