A somewhat belated response to Joseph's challenge of last week...
I Would Be Music
I would be music The spirit transcending Races and places and eternity The music of the oceans, the seas The seasons and their phases The music of streams and rivers And their moods The music of birds and trees and bumblebees Dolphins and butterflies The music of the stars The planets as they sail Through the universe and timelessness I would be The music of a thousand genres From a cappella to zydeco The music of a thousand instruments From accordion to zither The music of a thousand singers and composers From Aznavour to Zimmerman I would flow through your soul Like life-blood through your veins I would be in you Yes I would be music
Music is soothing, but sometimes it has many moods. I would be soothing type of music til I got in one of those moods. Outside the fram of my mind = is the ocean coming roaring.
THE IMAGERY IN THIS WORK IS JUST WONDERFUL...A VERY WELL DONE WORK DESCRIBING THE ORIGIN AND POWER OF SUCH A STRONG INSTRUMENT OF INSPIRATION...MUSIC. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS. LOVE,
JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Musikalisch sehr lehrreich und beeindruckend!Had to throw that in based on the last comment. Basically, very instructive and impressive musically speaking. Good poem.
Regis,
Very heavy duty. Alors, tu aimes Charles Aznavour. ? Moi aussi, j'aime beaucoup Aznavour. J'ai fait la connaissance de lui a New York. J'aime beaucoup la chanson La Boheme et La Mama.

When I read this, I felt like it should be singing it's sweet song to me and wished that I could sing it. But you sing it well without the music we can hear on the outside. You certainly know how to touch the inside of our brains and hearts and ears! Love as always, Meredith
Fantastic! "Music is the language of the spheres..." is no mere romantic musing. The whole of the universe is based on a foundation of numbers, which music embodies. This is a passionate and inspired write Regis!
And music I are. hinking of Bartry Manaloe. There's a tune in my head often--hard to catch and put down before it vanishes like a ghost. Great idea.

They say, “music soothes the savage beast.” I believe it also opens many doors into ones soul and allows it to become in harmony with its surroundings. Excellent work Regis, thanks for sharing it. Take good care and be well.
Music is never belated, and it is never too early, either, dear Regis, because Music transcends time itself... "through the universe and timelessness"... as it transcends space, in its boundlessness. This beautiful poem is Music which echoes the Music that you already are, and will always be.

Beautiful but, if one can't hear the music, would you still comfort us with harmony?
Knowing you, you would :)! Your soul is as beautiful as your poetry :)!

Ah Regis, Rufuz and I await patiently each poem you write, sometimes with bated breath we read them and have to re-read them to understand them, but this one speaks from your musical heart and soul & I understand it totally and have to say I love this one of Joseph's challenge the very best...this is a keeper!

PS: Isn't it nice of Sara to give you a link to a "car" radio signal...I didn't know Saturn's had that option...;) ed
You know, I think I'd like to be music myself. And for all we know, we are. Only we don't think of ourselves as a collection of sounds, rather a collection of teeny packets of living cells. ~ Sara

I'm sorry to have been away; I've missed your distinctive blend of intensity, passion and humor. Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka quote comes to mind: "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams."
... saving the best for last then: Regis, this is outstanding and so effortless - like cool soul or jazz vibes on a Spanish breeze that is scented with Africa!! :)) It is quintessentially music itself - Yes, you would be music because you ARE music! Classic and refined. Like a fine vintage wine, this is worth waiting for. Encore une fois! LOL Kate xx
This takes me to a time not so long ago when I "viewed" Irish lesbians sitting atop a row of rum kegs singing a cappella in Laurie Riley's, a lesbian bar. Music like writing has a thousand genres ... I am so proud that you are a part of it, Regis. I read this poem a few times in complete silence so I could hear each and every sound you described. I can so hear the zither being played by a Japanese-American woman sitting in a pagoda across from a lake of swans. Thanks for giving me music today, Reg!
Ah the joy and romance is creeping back into your writing! This is an exceptionally nice piece. I really REALLY enjoyed it. Blessings and love, Michelle
Regis you have chosen well!A spectacular poem! I can't picture a world without music, as you so beautifully point out Mucic sings in every aspect of creation.Thanks for sharing1
Ah, a grand wish to be music. Music soothes the . . . well, you know. However, music does not "transcend races." Far from it. Music is used as a battle cry for races to go to war. To put passion and fear into peoples thoughts and hearts in order to used them for purposes most devious. Good poem, just nit-picking about one thing in particular.
Such a gem! Regis thi touches every reviewer in the heart as music and life seem quite inseperable in many ways. In sound and in silence music is in everywhere. Thanks great poet

There is music in all of Creation
and I believe that it does
flow through our souls.
Music has been called "The Universal Language"
and I believe this is also true.
What a beautiful thing to aspire to be!
Thank You for responding to the challenge
in such an inspiring way.
