Gray Music Poem by Sandra Fowler

Gray Music

Rating: 5.0


You wrote your Yiddish signature in rain.
I could not match it in a thousand years.
Old words are classic to my memory.
Because of you, my feet have wings this day.

Gray music paints a picture of rare worth,
A Slavic image of an April mood,
Breaching the barrier of your last breath,
I should not wonder, Friend, you said it would.

'For a poet who was born in April and died in April'.

A beautiful tribute to a friend. The flesh may be mortal but words such as these will live beyond the grave. Leonard

Beautifully spoken words of mourning for a friend whose memory will always bring joy to your life. I'm so sorry for your loss but I am happy you celebrate the joy of the memories he/she left with you and that will always remain with you.

Lovely poem! Life never ends and death is merely a transition. But some people leave behind indelible memories, making them immortal...

Music is spirit preserved for eternity. The color of slavic music, their words are in their music.
