Harp Of Gold Poem by John Knight

The melodious harp music. It brings all the emotions indeed. This is such a lovely poem.

Almost Heaven a solo harp al fresco...flight fantastic…gallery of legendary musicians… ‘Did God create them or the instrument? ’…enigmatically elegant…to ooze blotted divinely poetic ministerial from celestial abode…Maestro… Ms. Nivedita UK 10/10

Loevly. :) I liked it a lot. ur reeaally guld. :)

I agree with your description of the harps purity and how it evokes natures rustling and gurgling.I have just purchased a CD Celtic dreams where harp, flute and cello mingle like magic and harp is my favorite instrument as, it can put one in a heavenly trance. A beautiful poem John... 10 love Karin

The thrust of the poem resonates like the harp - - there is no other instrument which sounds as much like 'almost heaven' as this to my ears John - - a fine trubute to both harp and harpists. Best wishes from Fay - - - 10

I like the line The absence of harmonic intrusion... Reading it makes you feel like something very important has been taken away, making the scene less complete. A nice vocabulary goes into this. Pulls off the harmony of the words without rhyme which is rare. Makes me wistfully start to think about the stream of consciousness that pops into my head when I read these lines...

no new poems in 4 yrs, john. I liked this one and hope you're ok

A beautiful poem which points out the beautiful music of the harp. There is no better music than that played on a harp by someone who really knows how to play. Well done indeed, John, and congratulations on Poem of the Day!

So true... I have always felt this way. There is something magical, most clean and pure about the harpist and her instrument...

The melodious harp music. It brings the emotions. This is such a lovely poem.
