On the Podium

As the maestro,
With melodic intention,
Directed the orchestra

Through movement 
Inflection

His face told the story
Of the composition
It was one of feeling

Deep love
Through years of time

Always prevailing
But not without trials
The tribulations needed

To make the love
Worthwhile

It wasn’t until the finale
That I read the name

The composer
Was the maestro

One who lived with heart
Sharing with music
