How can this be a four line poem when there are only two? Quelque chose ne cloche pas. Anyway, I am a classical music lover, always have been even as a young boy. Bach is certainly a favorite on my list, followed by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms and others. I take issue, not all classical music is calming. Much of Beethoven's isn't. Thank you for stopping by. Best to you in your writing endeavors. / M
