Miracle Music

I heard heavenly music as it swept across the horizon It was an all inclusive sound calling the wild ones home Not a soul was seen but always felt and heard throughout the valley floor Every species present left no doubt that they were always hungry for more Singing and shouting and sounding like frogs and water fouls From near and far came birds of prey as well as tree sitting owls Neither beast nor geese were excluded from their creator's song A gathering song that protruded the language of a thousand tongues Not about you or me, those heavenly strings embraced a golden touch It was a powerful touch that brought every rival to a holy hush The lions began to lie down along side the lambs*; and the children played near poisonous vipers Seeds were the feast of Crocodiles who ceased to eat the wildebeest The presence of the magical music was like a calm to the raging sea 10052017 PS Premiere Contest #115, Strand *Isaiah 11:6
