A Piano Played Beautiful Roses 6.4.2008



This morning a piano played beautiful roses
by threading a melody; violin strings sighing
together inserted velvet caresses, the Skater’s
Waltz created a sequence of dancers in shiny
sequins, forming exciting spirals in the mind’s
frozen landscape

My consciousness turned to a positive state
following these movements up-and-down, new
hope filled my heart, I swung high up in the air;
sleds with bells tinkled along, I saw it all in my
mind’s eye, the music weaving colour-coded
pictures for me

The musical composition turned into a loom
weaving the rounded notes into enchanting
images of a magic, frosted scene reshaping
my consciousness; an alternate reality that
inspires beauty as I traverse this day,
filling it with meaning

Transcending grey duty in melodious tones
of harmonics playing joyfully…

An enjoyable piece to read with all the images, movement, and sounds. Music can certainly lift up our spirits. I like violin music the best, so this line means a lot to me. violin strings sighing together inserted velvet caresses
