Written in haibun form (using modern haiku) this piece was inspired by a night of rain and the music it brought with it...



Splash

I hear rain
Splash against glass
And I smile

I wonder as I listen to this winter concert... how long has it been since Heaven's sonata has been played for me?  A day... a week... a month... a season?   But what does it matter really... because each is like the first heard and the next I wait to hear.  Each has a texture and a scent and a taste of its own... and the dances, the poems, the mind paintings evoked, have their own spirit, their own heartbeat... their own splash against glass.  And I smile...

As each splash
Traces its way
To my soul

I can relate to this, Myrna. We've had a deluge here and, with the melting snow, many people on the valley floor have had to be evacuated. Thank you. Love and best wishes,

Regis

Myrna, this is such a beautiful writing full of well-stated feelings of a soul and the playing of music arouses the heart to feel a texture, a scent, and a taste all of its own in each note. How much more beautiful could this have been written? (NONE)

This one is extraordinarily soothing and it makes my whole insides melt away! I'll bet it is even better hearing it read by a Cajun voice of conviction. Shall we try that? Love, - Bill

Hey SPP, We've been hearing that certain 'splash' since early December, I wonder if it will ever end? Nice writing too!

Cheers,
Dan

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
