Music Within
** Music Within **
Remarkably…
Oh, do! Please!
Begin the music
For my inner empty places —
Such as they are…Please!
Sound some splendid inspiration
For my waking…
Do bring all-surrounding some music!
That I might leap!
Leap into a new day
As soon as the dawn’s
Stroking sunshine bathes my face!
I promise to be alert to listen…And to wait
— expecting — hopeful to hear,
Beauty’s range of notes Vibrating in my ear!
To
Carry me
Quite Off the floor!
and
UP! Into the air!
Distinctively
Dressed in a contemporary suite
Of rythms and frequency modulations
As conducted along passages over the scales
With different pitches
To excel! High!
And
Then
Down…
As
The tempos and frequencies change
By the composed signified
Syncopation
Of the beats…
I’ll join in
Keeping time
To the music’s
Play…
And the varying frequencies…Heard
Surrounding do cause a vibrating within me…
So naturally seamed to my nerves…Enlivening,
Enchanting
Dance…Out! To rise
From my sleeping life’s dormant places…
In motions choreographed and set down…In
Footprints to follow
Between glistening stars’ beams found
— By Divine grace — in my beating heart!
