Liz Walsh Poet Prose Poetry

Pleasurethe Melody Gradually Filters

The melody gradually filters
Through my being 
Filling my soul with joy
I go with it savouring, anticipating
It’s genius – no other thoughts enter
Just floating with the melody
Surprised by some discords they startle me
Prepare me for the majesty of sound to come

Connie Marcum Wong September 22, 2010 at 3:00 AM OOOOOh Liz, this one gave me chills! Music is the calming elixir of the world, yet in contrast also may be the exuberant one that forces feet to tap and move one to the dance floor. I love it! Mahalo, Connie
