In Memoriam of a Broken Family
Remembered the 1940s, the season of the holocaust. Six million irons, disjointed from their ores Were forged in bottomless pits of anvils. The swarming bees in a ceremonious buzzing Were uncoupled from their hives through Reichsbahn. However, a tensed, stale wind of discord swivel On the creeks of Dachau, Auschwitz, Treblinka And other shores of darkness. Never shall the bloody sky efface again The...

Angels and Lyres
When she appears, It is my silent call she hears. She is not a vision or an apparition, I'm startled, spellbound and mesmerized. It's a feeling of heaven sent, With an overwhelming feeling of love. When I feel her presence and hear her lyre, She has quietly arrived and is by my side. The emotional pain begins to ease, My attention and thoughts mollify. I...

Gleaming, shining silver wire Admiring skills of a crafted lyre Music heard in all it's glory Lured to listen to an angel story Alas they yearn to hear the sound Angel whispers intelligence bound Verlaine v Grigori, Evangeline in a stir Past softly strummed, an everlasting whir Dark tones of fallen angels Orphic mysteries portrayed Performing wonderful music Angelic life displayed Poetic and mystic art Magical ancient thriller Angels...

Angels and lyres have me spellbound, Is this the garden of Eden that I've found? I find myself floating in a musical stream, Filled with nine angels weaving this dream. Their music filling me with such delight, This spectrum of colours as I take flight, Archangel above on white feathered wing, Playing his lyre that makes my heart sing. Taking turns in their...

Likely story, "Lyres" lie, Looking angelic, Laughable really. Lively defense, Lovely lawyer. Loads of evidence, Loose lips, Lots of blood, Lost cause. Let the "lyre" go? Lovely angels say, "No"! Copyright: April 17, 2017 (for the Angels and Lyres contest)...

Angel and Lyres
The heavens were seated. So were all the elders, as the great seraphim wallowed them all in melody. The sweetness in her voice has never been heard by man. Her lyrics and rythem has yet to be conceived. The melody of the songs seized the wind but least man should die it moves slowly. Her instrument...

From head to toe the Angel sways as silence fills the air the music soothes her body so as other Angels gather round brought in by her trance of sound the lyre gracefully abounds from turtle shell to the yoke a stringing sound is rose the mind erases the days mistakes fills with balance like the soul The Angel strums along the fine tuned strings as...

My muse is an angel dressed in white. Above my shoulder it now lingers, Uncertain in the sudden daylight, Holding a lyre in their five fingers. The instrument is of classic mete, With fine wooden frame painted golden, And seven strings, all sounding so sweet, Their tune evoking times of olden. Is the muse girl or a boy you ask? In truth, I think...

Angels and Lyres
The day I heard my guardian cherub play, my heart raced with sincere anticipation- For each note was a heavenly display, as her lyre was born from an angel’s creation. An ivory overlay with a swan head engraved, her lyre has seven strings all different in length- For the sound of beauty has definitely saved my soul and has given me...

Angels and the Lyres
The dew drops on the grass, The whirling water of calm lake, The unfolding bud of the rose, The butterfly in the cocoon, The newly rising sun , Delighted and heard the first cry Of the newly born child. Fallen angels on earth Tempted and smelled the scent Of newly-cut umbilical cord, They're feasting for discord. The lightning flashed, The thunder sounded loud. Blinded and deafened...

Fair Angels of Parnassus, Muses Nine, That on its snowy summit gay recline With other gods, are haply the cynosure Of poets whom inspires your sacred ewer, O'erflow'd with the ambrosial Hippocrene, The haunt of daughters of Mnemosyne, And Father Jove who loves these nymphets most, And of that gelid crest th’ immortal host. Apollo, son of Jove, gives company To your glad...

A whispering willow Once said that Orpheus' lyre Is still somewhere in the woods Nestled under an olive tree Then came an angel Oh my, what wonder! She took the lyre and played a song The sirens' tune went mute The ocean and sea stopped their tumbling war Heaven's citizens above looked down to earth The deaf man turned his ear to hear Sun, moon...
