I Hear the Music...

A sonnet

I hear the music when I'm with you.  
Each time the melody sings anew,
Soon the golden notes of the band
Carries me away to another land.
 
As my imagination leaves me speechless,
The orchestra fades into the darkness.
When I remember the feel of your arms,
Soon I am captivated by your charms.  

I hear the music when we're together.
The melody grows for our pleasure,
I soar again, singing sheer bliss.  
As we share another sweet kiss.
 
The strings of the violin I hear
Magically every time you are near.

Author's Note

My fiance really loves music, so I wanted to write a piece that included music.

Ohhh.... I know this feeling, remembering back to the days of yore in high school. Lovely words for romantic feelings. Music really does set the stage, and then there is the music of the words.
