GymnopedieA Poem by Robert TrakoflerThis Lyrical poem inspired by Erik Satie's Gymnopedie #1 This song has always haunted me from the first time I heard it. I wrote the first 8 lines about 5 years ago and could never finish until now.Gymnopedie no. 1 I remember that smile on her face Basking delight In the warmth of its grace Watched as the breeze whisked and danced with her hair Promising ease from all earthly despair I remember that smile on her face Now that times passed can scarcely recall What it was like but to warrant enthrall Sigh with unease that my heart can still care Time can’t appease she’ll no longer be there © 2024 Robert Trakofler © 2024 Robert TrakoflerAuthor's Note
