Decorates
The conch shell decorates the chest
With the ocean resounding in its soul
As the distinguished maestro plays his best
Soft, low, and inviting just to test
Which music touches the soul
The conch shell decorates the chest
While the cobalt blue waters of the ocean crest
The violin gently held and bow softly pulled
As the distinguished maestro plays his best
The gray hair and beard show his years stressed
But his love only sees his great gift while
The conch shell decorates the chest
That under the open window sits at rest
Sun shining on that bay as the violin music drifts astray
As the distinguished maestro plays his best
While his love just a room away dances and sways
To the music that touches her soul this day
The conch shell decorates the chest
As the distinguished maestro plays his best

(The word maestro here means: a master of any art.)
