Something For Pyotr

Is anything more beautiful
  than a Tchaikovsky waltz

The Nutcracker sublime,
  Swan Lake to exalt

Where violins elevate,
  and horns renew hope

Archangels in heaven,
  by his music elope

Is anything sweeter
  than a Tchaikovsky refrain

Wind instruments sonorous,
  flutes pouring like rain

Percussion calls out,
  as you rise from your seat

No choice but to dance,
—your circle complete

(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2016)
