Earth Music

Earth Music 

The earth ever composes mystical arias for me
That taste the splendor of rolling thunder,
To touch the silent metronomes of lyric waves
That hypnotize my presto pulse in movements perpetual.

The sounds of earth…

Earth music arranges lively spinning scarazzos 
In magic lines for my inspiration
To scent the shades of pastel pitch
And reverberate in paschal hues of dawn and dusk.

The music of my soul

Revolving earth ever sings new scores in spheres
That resolve discordant tones of atonality
In rumbling fault zones that move to nascent reality
Paeans, chants, in deep river waterfalls drumming. 

The sounds of earth….

Earth music hums in timorous rotation with me
To resound in the harmony of celestial orbits
Tuned, tuned into, tremulous tones in shadows and storms
With a tuning fork of vibrating seasons.

The music of my soul

The earth ever writes solos of meadows for me
Sunlight’s bright vibratos skipping with energy
In the fragrance of fragrant harp strings
Plucked like wildflowers of whispering flutes

The sounds of earth…

Earth music performs the music of my soul
Grace notes, once in the grip of apathy,
Voice the sweetness of cricket canticles
In the symphony of my soul.

Earth music for my soul

Love your harmonies, Sam, especially like 'waterfalls drumming' and 'wildflowers of whipsering flutes' - should be a top winner!

Reading this exquisite piece, Sam, I could hear that "earth music" perfectly. It really got my "presto pulse" racing.

Thank you so much Jim! When I finally pay attention, I do get to hear the melody of the earth - a lovely symphony indeed. I am so glad that you liked this poem. I had fun composing it thinking about all of the music around me. All the best!
