Soul Food

The orchestra plays the music
that majestically swells
the violins, flute and piccolo
harmoniously scream the song at the top,
and the soul gets fed,
and feels full.

I loved your metaphor of music as soul food. It is a very satisfactory form of nurishment, Miranda. Thanks for sharing through your poetry. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

Music can soothe the savage beast and give us a soul food feast! Robert
