A play on musical expression


Poem Artwork

 



Intake of breathe of breath at haunting wail

From stroke of bow ’cross quivering string

Whilst notes, with wings like dragon flies,

Stream forth from belly’s depths and sing

And sumptuous lace-edged chords infuse

The very air with ruse of blues

Reverberation dancing where

The eye can’t see but mind pursues

*

Incessant strains of mellow song

As colours fill the void with sound

Whilst practiced fingers play the board

And ultimate expression’s found

Bestowing soul, its loyal muse,

With utter joy at artful cues

Soft echoes reaching out until

The heart is bathed in golden hues

*

Thus mind is lost in glorious noise

Whilst string’s reverberations dance

Such magic takes a hold within

And nothing e’er shall get the chance

To break the spell these sounds infuse

By way of inspiration’s dues

Our heart and soul as one immersed

In art our Maestro’s hand construe s

*

Drawn to close this recitation

Breath expelled in admiration.

Nice one Ruan. I have no musical skills, yet I have a great appreciation for those who do. It's hard to imagine a world without music. Dick
