~Macabre Magnifique

~ Many see death as somthing very scary, or eerie. While there is true beauty in it...

~Macabre Magnifique

 

Enjoyment in small scale

Acceptance of death

By early years,

As I dance on my so

 

Majeur Macabre

Magnifique as liquid can burn

Your stomache for

The dance of the death

 

With your feet on white

Lilies light, as a feather

In the dusk of the evening

Rotate and move like a marionette

 

Your hair is dancing in the wind

It is the last shimmering light you see, 

Until new light is being announced

In a new world full of desire

Aware just of your last dance

 

Your life is like music can entrust

Each felt note from your soul

From eternity, and lightly grow

In the next green timeless eras

Dear E.L.,

Excellent choice in music. I enjoy classical music as it allows a breath of art through vision. I think of a waltz between death and eternity. Wow, I just looked up what "macabre" meant and it makes me realize this is extremely darkly written. It's ironic and makes a pleasant oxymoron of bliss and death. The music plus the poem itself takes me to a night of romantic contrast between life, death, and music. Indeed there is beauty in death for death is not an ending, but a new beginning into what you have called "timeless eras." Or perhaps death gives inspiration to timeless eras of music. I find this piece to be romantic and relative to the beautiful music you have here.

My favorite lines are: "Your hair is dancing in the wind
It is the last shimmering light you see,
Until new light is being announced
In a new world full of desire
Aware just of your last dance"

Well done!

Sincerely Victorious

God bless you!

"With your feet on white

Lilies light, as a feather

In the dusk of the evening

Rotate and move like a marionette"~ Beautifully depicted Eli! The music is magnificent, complimenting the "dance of death". This is Grandeur at it's finest... You have written a masterpiece!

Hi sis, oh thank you so much, dear one. Your words mean the world to me... ♥ xxx

Lovely write and music enhances the message that death is not to be feared but a continuation of life in another form. The green colour soothing too .

Thank you so much Moon, it's my favorite color, the one of the sea. Glad to see you around always! :)

"Your hair is dancing in the wind
It is the last shimmering light you see,
Until new light is being announced"- So beautiful!
The whole piece is enchanting. I love the music, BTW...it's amazing!

Thank you so much dear Leone, it is the danse Macabre *Dance of the Death" and I did an earlier write about this too, with another vision as this one. So glad you loved it, it's to be a death to celebrate... that's what I wanted to bring over. xx

I like the way you describe in vivid image the dance of death, which is no longer scary, it`s somehow connected with freedom and reality, it attracts beauty...The "white lilies" are strong symbol of purity and peace, they could be related also to the image of dead, dressed in white and full of glory. As the death is beginning of another life and freedom...
