Silvergreen Saxophones
Saxophones swimming like dolphins and
Playing like porpoises far from land
Utterly free from the human hand:
Some saxophones seem to understand
I saw saxophones dancing together
It sounded as beautiful as it was
Bringing a warm interior weather
I learned all about this only because
This was a lifechanging moment for me
When I saw them singing their symphony
And then in the olive grove I recall
Seeing them shining in silvergreen leaves
And there they seemed most beautiful of all:
When it comes to saxophones one believes
I keep my ears open so I can hear
Of silvergreen saxophones swimming near
