Notes About The Poem

Classical Music


I'm in the mood for Mozart, or Strauss, perhaps Beethoven,
   Even Bach or Handel would soothe this soul of mine tonight;
     A little Chopin with wine, peaceful and mesmerizing the sound,
         Majestic and serene, spiritual and sensual, magical, haunting.

Always changing, sometimes fast, chaotic and then restful,
  It echoes in my head as I listen to the sweet flowing rhythms;
    I just close my eyes and relax, letting the stress just dissolve,
      Sometimes I listen to the Gregorian Chant with it's melodic notes.

Time stands still and the music embraces me and I am away,
  Calming and exhilarating, mysterious and comfortable to me;
    This music takes me to a mountain stream or a lush green forest,
        I just flow with the instruments on a lovely journey all by myself.

Music has the ability to take one on a journey out of the body to float or travel the cosmos. This is the way I felt while reading your lovely poem Constance. Best of luck if for a contest. This is outstanding!
