The Viola

Stringed strained vibrations alto hauntings of the heart playing strumpet along the inner ear responsive fingering that cries aloud; intensified bravado rhythms that reverberate the shoulders, chin and arm sensuous, distinctive obligatos resonant timbre both sensual and veiled austerity weeping muted strings, calling out remote interludes wafting on the darkened winds forboding escape bidding the heart to forget its muffled lament and play on.

Some say the viola is a violin with a college education. lol Nicely scribed, DM. Where words end, music begins.
