Notes About The Poem

Music To My Ears

When life is like an evanescent dewdrop, spirits fade like ashes in a cimmerian shade but then you smile, enlightening like a crescent moon, sparkling in silent serenity. My heart floats like a sussuration of butterflies, soaring toward an empyrean paradise of petals yearning to stay for eternity then you speak, serenading like a harmonic orchestra of angels, suddenly I feel like a blissful bard, strumming strings of a heavenly harp. My radiant beloved, my soul glitters for you, like a million devoted stars, sparkling in twilight aurora. Your voice is my sweetest abode, a soothing sanctuary, cleansing my sins, healing like fragrant Jasmine, dulcifying my heart, Upon my final swan song sonnet, do not shed a tear, for our love is timeless. Sing me one last lover's lullaby, even in death, your voice will be music to my ears.

Romantic expressions of love sometimes sound so much better when expressed through poetry, S1, and this is one such example! That's when a reader's heart floats! Regards // paul

Silent One, if you ever think of changing anything about this poem, please do not. Especially change nothing about this part, for it is perfectly written: "My radiant beloved, my soul glitters for you, like a million devoted stars, sparkling in twilight aurora. Your voice is my sweetest abode, a soothing sanctuary, cleansing my sins, healing like fragrant Jasmine, dulcifying my heart."

Hi Silent, this is another exceptional piece. Your poetry sings in this free verse form, your poetry should never have the restriction of form. You sing with such deep emotions, poetry that enters the heart with ease. Such beautiful words painting such beautiful images. Let your heart sing out my friend. Have a wonderful Sunday. Your friend always....Mike. A fave.

I can hear the symphonic strings in your poem, and when I get off the computer, I shall look for music to play for me and my memories.
