Lunar Music

                                                                                               

Every night when the city sleeps

Deep in your mind music plays.

Though very faint it is there

Giving a feeling that all is ok.

 

So many times you look to the sky

Swearing it rides down on moonbeams

And often when your look to the sky

You’re certain you see a piano and wings.

 

Every note beats with your heart,

Every chord at one with your soul

That this phantom song brings no fear

In fact you welcome the heavenly harmony.

 

As you go about your life blissfully unaware

This masterpiece is played by your guardian angel

To drown out the negative sounds of evil

That tempts your conscience and goodwill.

 

 

Author's Note

This is a piece inspired by the combination of Kelly D Burris' poem The Composer and the picture posted with this piece... I hope you enjoy it.

The title captures the essence of the poem...........Such is that of Lunar Music.
Phantom song brings no fear
In fact you welcome the heavenly melody.......so, beautifully expressed.
Isn't it wonderful when a piece is inspired by the work of another artist? I just love it!

wow Dale, this was simply beautiful! I had a crappy monday, but hell, after reading this, it brought a smile to my face! Ah it's like dream like, I love it. - Reminds me of the sub-conscience talk we had!

"So many times you look to the sky

Swearing it rides down on moonbeams

How simply sweet and beautiful - so much so, I wanted it to go on. I wanted to see what other comparisons you could draw out while writing this.
I look forward to the next poem. :)

Oohhh, this is mystic as if it is from another world. It is comforting to think on such things. Blissfully wonderful!

I'm with Dani on this. How did I miss this? This is a softer side of you that we, your readers, don't usually see. It's absolutely beautiful and a wonderful tribute to Kelly. She's a lovely writer.
