Music So Warm

Music So Warm

A Poem by Alexa Tarvid

I,

Am not alone,

The water is cold

But your gaze so warm,

Each breeze carries the notes of a violin,

Its song carresses my skin

As I stand and listen,

I,

Am listening,

 

The clouds shift

Revealing a lively sun,

It's light kisses my face,

I look up to accept its embrace,

though the water is cold,

The sun's light is so warm,

I,

Am glowing,

 

Here it comes,

The violin is pouring out its soul,

Its spirit crashes to the shore

With the waves,

But the sun,

Its wings of light take flight,

As it strokes the keys of a piano,

Such a story it sings,

I,

Am paying attention,

 

And then there it is,

Right in front of me,

The music takes form,

Into a giant tree,

The song taking shape in its rich green leaves,

The roots dig deep into the sand,

The waves lick its harsh bark,

But the violin is the resulting sound,

 

And then there it is,

The sun,

It breathes onto the tree,

The leaves stretch to soak it in,

And as the breeze fights with each one,

I here the piano,

Its song,

 

The water is cold,

But the music so warm,

See?

I,

Am Listening.

Music can bring peace to any moment. The violin in my favorite sound. Take talent to bring life and music to the violin. I like the feel and emotion in the poem. The complete poem was amazing. I like the ending. A excellent poem.

Ahh good old music :) It is amazing and I find it's pretty indescribable in all it's beauty, but this did a very good job I thought :D. Even music of the world, like wind or waves as you stated can be just as lovely and you portrayed it very well here, Good Work :)
