Song of the Heart
Song of the Heart
Quietly,
pianissimo,
the melody begins
softly,
smoothly,
as the wooing takes center stage
wrapped in gossamer strands of moonlight
her eyes twinkling with the stars
glisten as tears of unbridled emotion slip down her cheeks.
He caresses her heart, gently tempting to her to wing
the song intensifies, crescendos,
and her heart bursts forth into the starry night
pounding with the timpani,
resounding with the woodwinds
and as the song quiets once more,
gently alighting
back into the hands
of the man who set her free.
They nestle together in contentment
as their hearts pound,
echoing the song in their souls,
anticipating their journey into the unknown symphony.
