Concerto Minimoso

for my father, Norman, in mid-life

 

 

You and I listening to Chopin,

a quiver through us both,

taken, staring,

somewhat petit mal,

(in retrospect),

that descending chord,

indelible cascade

that didn't resolve to its tonic

but instead, to the minor sixth,

f minor: the everything of that.

Years pass and again

the deceptive cadence

the master wrote,

I heard,

and you were.

This seems to have deep meaning which, of course, I do not understand; but your verses express something that I can feel. Thanks for sharing, Julie. Love and peace,

Regis
