Singing Soft Songs of Solitude

dulcet harmony revealed
all you dreamed of ~

inside an aria of resounding
melodies, 
you became a woman of
philharmonic beauty,
always in unison with the notes
your soul desired

lyrics written from a sore heart,
verses sung without a voice
left you no choice-
rhythm of your soul speaks in
harmony with my dreams,
they come true,
        when near you

you are the resounding tune
i’ve always longed to remember
when rain cascades with cobalt
clouds;
they seek your music too

for you bring me to a place
where the languid in me 
d
r
i
p
s  slowly with sadness 
   your muse soothes my soul

sweet sister-
                 settle by the sill…
     and sing soft songs of solitude
