Peeling the Violin

PEELING THE VIOLIN
.  .  .  .  ~  ~ ~ .  .  .  .


~ swerving along its waxed wood rapturous strains sweep alto mood bow’s strings peeling my plight… in the unmentionable softness of moonlight. holding its hips to warm the cure scales of moans vibrating satin pure a glide to and fro connects pitches right… in the sweet tender softness of moonlight. and my world of solace will sustain tunes whispering gladness and pain the voice of God enters my fiddling night… in the unmentionable softness of moonlight. ~

This is wonderful, Nette. I bet it places high. I think you do really well when you focus on one beautiful line and repeat it like this. It gives your poetry such an easy relaxed flow!
