Notes About The Poem

*This poem was written to go with this instrumental song I wrote many years ago -  to be listened to with this poem - *However, there is some static. It is not recorded in a studio and we have to straighten out some music recording issues.  Thank you for your patience.

*Thank You Joseph for collaborating with me on this, you are an inspiration and pleasure to work with :)

Listen to poem:

Moonlight Serenade Collaboration With Poet Joseph May

A moonlight serenade drifts up to the stars
And joins the melody of the universe
Ebony notes accompany celestial guitars
And moonbeam rhapsodies soon disperse

The serenade plays with the steps of two
Evolving in love beneath a moonbow
Dancing to the ebony notes with a view
Their hearts rest with the soft music flow

Stardust descends as ivory notes join in
As he whispers sweet nothings in her ear
The tango of love is the dance within
And they dance a tune only lovers hear

Step by step, heartbeat by heartbeat
The music and love float to the sky
Light kisses under the moonbow meet
With impressions made in time floating by

Heidi Sands and Joseph May

Oh, I absolutely LOVE this collaborative poem! This write is truly one of my favorites of yours Heidi (And Joseph)! What a delightful piece to read, it lulled me into a peaceful state of mind! What a glorious poem, Great Work! Oh, BTW, I used to paint, but haven't have found the time to do so lately and I miss it terribly! I love to oil paint, it is such fun (and expensive)! Great Work!!
