Concerto Minimoso

for my father, Norman, in mid-life

 

 

You and I listening to Chopin,

a quiver through us both,

taken, staring,

somewhat petit mal,

(in retrospect),

that descending chord,

indelible cascade

that didn't resolve to its tonic

but instead, to the minor sixth,

f minor: the everything of that.

Years pass and again

the deceptive cadence

the master wrote,

I heard,

and you were.

Julianza, Inkling

I hear omission bells in the far distance, somewhat disonant, that so?

mesmerizing ... "halfway between complex and stable ..." an echo of remembrance ...

This seems to have deep meaning which, of course, I do not understand; but your verses express something that I can feel. Thanks for sharing, Julie. Love and peace,

Regis
