Serene Slumber

This elgiac chant
possessing
my serene slumber
is ceaseless
this constellation
of lovely sounds
an ethereal song
and endless sum of
notes so infinite
and timeless

within my
serene slumber
my trance
they dance on
an astral plane
that shifts
and transforms into
a scene of serenity
ebbing into my sedation

such a bliss is this
jubilance
such a divinely kind
deity which dances
and prances gaily
in my darkness
in my dreams
such whispers
such chants

oh this melody from
an ethereal ruler
of the night
of the universe
softly echoing
all the notes
in their reverie
plays in my slumber
delights in my dormancy
softly echoing
in my rest
ruling me in rapture
majestic and resplendent.

Caren Krutsinger January 13, 2021 at 9:12 PM This reads like a sonnet, a melody, and a cherished story. Wow! Rob Levasseur January 15, 2021 at 9:54 AM Thank you Caren. Just some musings I threw together into a poem.

Regina Mcintosh January 13, 2021 at 4:50 AM Lovely... God bless you Rob Levasseur January 15, 2021 at 9:53 AM Thank you Regina.

Andrea Dietrich January 10, 2021 at 11:25 AM I agree with Eve this is lovely in flow. I rarely have this kind of slumber time. My dreams are all so odd but also entertaining! Well, I am listening to the music now, and I can tell you are more describing the experience of enjoying this calming music. I think you must be a meditative type of person, as are others I have met here at Soup! I just have stuff like Taylor Swift stuff repeating in my mind at night! (not much that says about ME) Rob Levasseur January 10, 2021 at 11:29 AM You were correct initially: I was describing a dream state I was in; however, because of Eve's comment, I thought I would add the music to it and it seemed to fit the language. Thank you for your thoughtful comments.

Eve Roper January 10, 2021 at 10:50 AM Rob, lovely write with great flow. I am not one to really give criticism, since sometimes I don't know what your are trying to say.. in this verse ( as I went to listen to the elegiac chant) Peaceful music would take me away to dreamlike place if I would put myself in. I have not bought your book, but if it's like your poems it would be enjoyable to read. Rob Levasseur January 10, 2021 at 11:08 AM Thank you so much for your thoughtful response to my poem. You actually inspired me to go find a piece of elgiac music. I posted it now with my poem. Thank you very much!
