A Different Song

To once again hear the renditions of the
songbird’s morning trill as leaves upon the
trees tremble in triad tones within the
moorside tempest; and lyrical waves in unsung
meadows symbolically crash against limestone walls
and telephone wires in viola whines
an archaic symphony.

It's good to miss the Yorkshire Moors, a stark beauty, from.mynlutersry "visits". But Harry, you did ask J. Maverichba urgent question, "faith in the face of people who use/ prostitute church& Christ Jesus"? Watch first new poem with shalom shalom forgiveness

It is so enlightening to hear a birds symphony. Love your theme and your creative abilities Harry. Hope you are well and the dictators in Australia are losing power for they wish to control you there. Stay well my friend and remember we win in the end for we haved our Lord who is in control of this madness taking place all over the world. The countries they have brought the New World Order first are China, the Netherlands and Australia. They removed the weapons and now these ruthless tyrants

Michael, its a living nightmare That is being enabled, yet can Be de-railed.. If just needs that Awareness and some Resistance ignoring the reality Is so counter to what Constitutes a better life, which In reality we all did.. Before the Improvements..If it wasn't so Sad it would be laughable.'

are causing food shortages, gas shortages, power grid shortages, and soon colapsing the economy and starting a bitcoin system controlling your money and based on your information you are tract with they will give you a credit score that will determin your rights. In China if you are a free thinker your score decreases and prividges are taken away such as flying, acess to help from the government etc. It is coming here and there if the mases dont protest and get rid of this cancer growth that is destroying our lives. Prayer is the best defensive tactic we can do. God bless you Harry and your family...

Nature's beautiful symphony, so sweet and euphonious falls in my ears as I read your verse. So beautifully composed, dear harry. Into my FAVE .

Any music that comes from nature in its simplicity and beauty far outweighs the crash of waves against limestone walls and an archaic symphony that comes forth especially when added to this symphony is the whining of telephone wires. Fantastic write Harry my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

The pure music of nature in contrast to the artificial symphony of telephone wires, I know which I'd rather hear~

I love the image of waves as the wind beats the long grass and heathers on the moors against the dry stone walls, yes it is like the sea in a storm.xx

I love your Unsung Song!~lyrical waves in unsung meadows symbolically crash against limestone walls...I think beautiful.

I like this a lot, harry; something very lyrical and appealing to me, and I can't tell you exactly what it is. I do like the images very much, however.
