Lyrics In the Wind

I hear a melody floating in the wind
Lyrical whispers played in F sharp
as though a violin had been chinned
or an angel is caressing the strings of a harp

It dried the tears of willows, weeping
Tickled the ears of a slumbering dream
drifted past my window as tea was steeping
with a love sweeter than skimmed cream

I love " as though a violin has been chinned" Jenna! The beautiful title sets the tone for the entire passage which I find very soothing on a raining morning!!! Happy Sunday xxoo

Jenna, I think F sharp is my favorite key for lyrical whispers! You have composed such a musically satisfying poem depicting a fleeting moment in time that floats in dreamy serenity. Love the serene images and the great rhymes (wind/chinned was my favorite). Speaking of favorites, this is going in my faves so I can play this song again and again. Blessings to you, my friend ~ John
