Tiny Tinny Harmony

TINY TINNY HARMONY

Quick and bright and dancing light
Close at hand where e’er I go
Slow sad whine cries in the night
Movement fast or rhythm slow

Rock or blues in hours of darkness
Tiny tinny notes in harmony
Fill the air with music breathless
Shining silver metal melody

Inner voice in wordless form
Which speaks a message  plain and clear
For me it’s always more the norm
To breathe that message in your ear

Round my neck its metal frame
Feels so soft with touch of lips
They kiss the notes  and call your name
Like wine received in gentle sips

Notes

Instrument is of course  Harmonica.
Just gotta love that blues harp  -  solo soul music
