Love Acts of Music

The cello and I
we sustain
in each other
while we play
the melody
The violin caresses
my shoulder while
we execute the work
musical,
the double bass
squeezes
 my chest
when together
we are in ensemble ...

With the tambourine, my fingers
and my hands do
frenetic
juggles...
the drums helps me
to beat up my
evils ... and to frighten
my fears...
The harmonica consciously
kiss me, kiss
while we are
on stage...
But it's the fender guitar
that plays me inside
 in solo riffs that
inflates my soul
and makes me squirm
on wishes ...
evaporating my suffering,
all while
we fly high
 feeling alive in music  !

Holy shit Alkas. I was all taken in by this being a poem of an old string quartet and then thunders the Fender!!! Excellent. My minor was music at university, but the reader needs not know this to enjoy your poetic musicality Alkas. Simply melodic...
