Requiem

Rise up, Rise up Go to meet your creator, The one who sought you favor, Who called you out. Rise up,Rise up Go and praise your savior, Go and praise your maker, The one who took you out of doubt. Wake up, wake up See the one who set you free, Who bought out the beauty in thee, The one that would never forsake. Wake up, Wake up Open your eyes now you see Go and meet the one who made thee, For now you are awake. (Requiem means Song of the Dead) This was Dedicated to Mozart

Mozart is such a rich character to write about. Well done! He is the greatest genius who ever lived in any field, and that's not just me talking. He kind of was God's pet.

Great tribute to the master of all things and to a magnificent musician. My late father was a composer. he set about 8 or so of my poems to music. Peace & Love Matthew Anish
