The Serenade

In the absolute calmness and silence
She puts her tender palms on the silver strings
Inhaling the hiss of the brooding
As the sounds of the silver flow with grace
And as elegance tells the tale of the mind

Separated from the realm of reality
Her mind wanders into oblivion
Yet her pink bright fingers continuously strum
Her gaze on the the snowy craters of the moon

She sings to her kind mother
For she hasn’t met her for such a long time
She hopes that her serenade reaches in the abode of the sky
Hope the divine responds to her glorious voice and accepts her plea

Hope y'all like it !

I saw an elegant lady plucking harp strings and singing lovely melodic notes. The whole image was very medieval. A wonderful serenade to the heavens. I hope someone was listening. Thank you Kathy for an atmospheric and visual piece of poetry.
