The Stringed Voice
They are many voices all around
some can be loud and others clear
distinctive with clarity and truth
one stands in awe feels so dear
The violin is an instrument supreme
it has a craft that delights one's ear
one loves to hear it's a special sound
for it delivers you to another sphere
One can't speak of this musician
for that is what it is a violin
this instrument speaks by its voice
it's sound speaks aloud truly within
Many have been gifted to play on this
before large audiences all the world over
truly skilled their performances show
a masterclass indeed one wants to kiss
My favourites in this are too many to name
but Hilary Hahn and Anne Sophie Mutter are class
being a Scot I must mention Nicols Benedetti
what wonderful music one's ears love to amass
(I have written this poem about the violin, the musical instrument, as it's one of my favourite classical instruments.)
