The Violinist

Rays of light ravish the dark, Breaths are held as if in fear, Awaited moment treading near, Eddy devouring the Noah’s Ark. A figure in black, drunk with awe Hair in ponytail, by Euterpe crowned Oceans of hurray, thus the silence drowned Moments are devoured by the hour’s maw Bow raised to enamor And violin by the chin Then a haughty grin Blossoming glamour Fingers of Muse charm Notes to dance with grace Melodious rhythms pace Ears’ wall to disarm Words of sweet euphony Crown soprano’s chant In violin’s veins pant Notes of divine symphony Soft strings of soul Delved in pure fantasy In harmony’s ecstasy Mind and matter become whole.
