Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Flute Solo Under An August Moon

moved with emotion
the flute breaks the silence

enchanting with rapture the evening magic
she casts out her midnight serenade

beguiling with every note
charming the summer breeze

she rounds up the stars and asters
and hypnotizes nightblooming flowers

paralyzes with awe the moon
that trembles in a sky that's quiet

she is captive under the flute's spell
all at the wave of nimble little fingers
