Orchestra

Orchestra

The zest of a Symphony:
Co-ordinated cacophony 
With a perfect harmony.

Gyre, spiral, pipe, cone...
Look and heed each one
Humming a unique tone!

He beats, he plucks, pulls
By the Conductor's rules.

Pensively each one looks
In between songs' books 
As a Clergy to the Books;

Then attentively all look
To he waving the 'hook'....

As papers openly stick,
Eyes trail the waved  stick
While plucked harps click!

               *

Life is Music or a Refrain
Sweet or with bitter pain
Cycling in a perfect chain.

Such is living's drab fuss
By an unnumbered mass
All crammed in one class.

Yet, He who the din braves
When the stick He waves
All crawl into the graves!
