THE MUSIC OF THE SPHERES

'Look how the floor of heaven
Is thick inlaid with patines of bright gold;
There's not the smallest orb which thou behold'st
But in his motion like an angel sings,
Still quiring to the young-ey'd cherubins;
Such harmony is in immortal souls..... '
-THE MERCHANT OF VENICE

The music of the spheres are so finely tuned,
With those nano strings vibrating all in tune!
God's philharmonic cosmic orchestra is at
play,
Try to hear its celestial symphony some day!
But our auditory faculties are inadequate for
those mellifluous sounds,
With which the entire universe abounds!
Can be heard only by a meditating soul,
When one transcends beyond earthly hold!
Fine tuning our soul with His vibrating
strings,
And in thanksgiving the soul begins to
sing!
In conformity with His divine harmony and
notes,
On which the entire cosmos floats!
Harmonising forever all space and time,
The Philharmonic Orchestra of the Divine!

(SCIENCE CAN KEEP TRYING WITH ITS SUPER STRING
THEORIES, BEHIND EVERYTHING IT SHALL ONLY
FIND HARMONY OF DIVINITY! ! !)

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Oh Yes! You have hit the mark and done so with singular beauty. Medieval music theoreticians taught that 'sounded' music is a reflection of the music of the human body which is in turn a reflection of the music of the spheres.
