POETRY IN MUSIC

"SPRING RAIN" John Sloan, 1912

SPRING IS HERE

Spring is here.
Why doesn’t my heart go dancing ?
Spring is here.
Why isn’t the waltz entrancing?
No desire, no ambition leads me,
Maybe it’s because nobody needs me.

Spring is here.
Why doesn’t the breeze delight me?
Stars appear,
Why doesn’t the night invite me?
Maybe it’s because nobody loves me?
Spring is here I hear.

Lyrics: Lorenz Hart
Music: Richard Rodgers
From the Broadway musical comedy, I MARRIED AN ANGEL.
Opened at the Shubert Theater, New York City on May 11, 1938.
Director: Joshua Logan

OH, ONE MORE THING...
LIKE GOOD MUSIC? MAD ABOUT GOOD BOOKS?
THEN SUPPORT AN ARTIST (me).
AND BUY A GOOD BOOK (mine).
LET YOUR HEART GO DANCING.
