ARTISTRY AT WORK
.
Lovely sounds fill the stifling air.
Who are that artist and song pair?
I hear the tune’s longing refrains
and love the way it entertains.
No lyrics needed, not this time.
They fill your brain with perfect rhyme.
“Over the Rainbow” cello plays
by Yo-Yo Ma with wizard ways.
So beautiful, you have to try
and watch it more or you will cry.
This artistry, wondrous to hear,
deserves a poem, not just a cheer.

Reminds me of the time a traditional Spanish flamenco guitarist came to campus. He had no microphone or other electrical enhancement, but filled the theater with amazing music from that guitar that made me want to dance. It's moments like this and the one you have given us here show us what musical genius really is.
