A Tribute To Lyric Man

“The Maestro” Tribute my favourite poet Your pen is a baton orchestrating love’s orchestra with ink on paper You’ve written a never-ending love song with my hearts in your audience And I’ve been inspired to fall in love with every lyric your soul pours out Your lyrics speak to my heart through life’s unheeding storms I’ve been caught out in the rain and you’ve been my water-resistant fabric On pitch-black nights, you’ve been my candlelight, and I bask in your warmth So as the heart’s animated and tears well up to your love stories To breath love like oxygen and to live like a burning flame in your fireplace It matters not that I don’t know your face, but know that I’m overdosed on your love portion As an aspiring writer, you’ve mentored my zeal and often directed it Love is easier to feel than it is to reveal, but through your magical hands Maestro, I’ve been touched by your musical genius to know and to speak the language of love To the stars I’ve been, but your work of art always brings me back home The past I’ve explored with a fine comb, but such eclectic words I’ve never known A harmonious ovation, with my heart in your audience to a life of evermore heart moving performances 08-06-2015 Sponsor: Silent One Contest Name: Tribute

Thanks Jan...He’s a poetic genius, a Maestro. The heart is his laboratory, love is his experiment and lyrics his apparatus (:heers, Tbang
