The Perfect Chord

The Perfect Chord

A Poem by PoetryofProvidence

What chord does one play to make a heart sing
that brings perspective to all life does bring
most seek it from others and look not to themselves
the getting or giving or the place that it dwells
a lifetime to learn it from some it must take
some learn it with skill upon their first partake

Life and death are in the power of the tongue
words that give life for millennias sung
none of song was for self exultation
but for the benefit to those of creation

What vibration on the string
lifts ones heart upon it's ring
it's embrace descends from heaven
where songs of Love from lips are given

What cord is it that breaks a heart
and rends it's flesh from very start
within it's reach the spirit inside
suffers so much that it has died

Those who love receive imperial crown
where others give hatred and with it drown
Words we speak we cannot take back
but beg forgiveness for knowledge we lack

Thread my being with your music my Lord
that joy in it makes my heart restored
It's melody is the Song of Perfection
to wondrous within for any rejection

Blessing and cursing from heart within
show unto others inner being from men
No fountain of water issues bitter and sweet
if we Love others our words will be meet

The words of Love are meant to build
Words of hatred so many have killed
the tongue of Love is it's own beauty
and through it we escape the law of duty

sources Prov 18:21 James chtr 3
