The fluidity of language and thoughts in your poems is something that strikes a chord with me as a reader. (Pun not really intended, at first...) Such a kaleidoscopic work! Thank you.

This is really lovely, Jon, so magical to read, you make the music dance across the page, and I could hear the symphony loud and clear because of your talented use of words.

Wonderful, insightful yet instinctive writing - you found the place that music lingers long after the song has ended. "...where does the piccolo hide when the symphony rests..." is terrific!

Even while reading this delightful poem, I have the music of Billy Taylor playing "Paraphrase" in my headset...the two, your poem and the music seemed to fit like a glove.

What an empty world it would be without music...
and of course the poet who writes with the flourish
of music. You are that poet, my friend. -gene.

Where music carries us
and where we joy in special places
of voice and instrument and all they speak;
music is always more than the sum of its parts
and its entertainment, it is another soul
communicating with ours.
What a delight of a poem you deliver us,
Jon, My Friend,
i'm richer because of this and so much warmer within.
