learning to drum
I went to Africa once,
and I learned how to play the drums.
I learned that anyone can play the drums for children who long for your presence and not for your skill.
I miss Africa,
and I miss playing the drums.
I miss playing drums with the children whose presence I still long for... not their skill.
This is my small attempt to remember Africa today.
It was almost two years ago that I was there, and I almost forgot.
How could I forget?
Maybe I'll get a drum set.
Or maybe...
I'll just go back to Africa!
Any takers?

You might look for a drum circle close to home. Seems as if most large metro areas have a few. Bring a little Africa here until your return.
:) huh... i like that!
