Something For Pyotr Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Something For Pyotr



Is anything more beautiful
than a Tchaikovsky waltz

The Nutcracker sublime,
Swan Lake to exalt

Where violins elevate,
and horns renew hope

Archangels in heaven,
by his music elope

Is anything sweeter
than a Tchaikovsky refrain

Wind instruments sonorous,
flutes pouring like rain

Percussion calls out,
as you rise from your seat

No choice but to dance,
—your circle complete

(Villanova Pennsylvania: December,2016)
