While Listening To Yo Yo Ma

While Listening to Yo Yo Ma *** ,(Performing Bach’s “Unaccompanied Cello Suite 1 in G Major”) ————- ————————————————————— Metamorphosis — Spires — The blood swift through my heart becomes rivers — rushing, Currents to places not of this earth. Thoughts become the skies of continuing horizons and variable light. My nerves exclaim Wonder At my stillness While listening to such Magnificence. But,no, not still at all. The music has launched travels within. I lie tuned in a sculpted Immensity. ——————————————— (c) sally young Eslinger 10/12/21
