Suddenly the crowd was...

Brian died
taking
part of me
with him

The part
that he
lent me
in 1966

Brian died
and the
colors
diminished

The notes
out of rhythm
and time

on the heartstrings 
of God
Whose chorus

Whose flute calls
us closer
Whose harp

Expressions
of spirit
the music
plays on

Beyond any
verbiage
or words
come and gone

At high
elevations
each note
takes you up

To reach 
into heaven
where feelings

As harp
strumming Angels
with harmony
strong

Play chords
of acceptance 
to guide
— you along
