I'Ll Be Bach

a song of myself

                           Pete Townshend feed back squealing

                                       caught in a mosh pit

Bach Sing Dei

After Christmas comes Boxing Day
When mum carts the rubbish away
Like one of the boys
Dad plays with our toys
Day is done; what more can I say?
Form: Limerick

Johann Sebastian Bach

Johann Sebastian Bach
Found that bread gave him creative spark
He would eat a whole ciabatta
Then knock off a fugue and toccata

Bach

A humble name,
Trilling far beyond river
For his music
Flows into the grandest ocean
Leaving land

German composer Johann Sebastian Bach -
Emotive depth and his “blue notes” were his music’s bedrock.
Having fathered twenty children and always on his toes,
how did he ever find time to compose?

Baroque Bach Mountain

If you climb it you will find
harmony
and peace of mind

  Bach is powerful and deep
he will rock you
in your sleep

  in great concertos
like a fountain
flowing down from
Baroque Bach mountain.

Johann Sebastian Bach,
the corridor of cadenced choral he did proudly walk.
Baroque musician, virtuoso organist, he created conglomerate of style;
the harmony of intertwined melodies made him a composer versatile.

Bach Where You Belong

When you’re far away,
In another place,
Your heart is lonely,
Life is meaningless,
The room is empty.

If you’re abroad,
From east to west,
There’s culture shock,
You’re a stranger.

Get back where
You belong.

There’s no
Place like

Home.

A Bach Fugue

A contrapuntal harmony made from pure
singing mathematical light.
The music cannot be denied,
it flows on like a silk dragon
over rolling savanna.
The hairs in my ears begin to dance,
the notes are calling out prismatic stars,
not the ones we see
but suns born in the shadowy cells 
of our own fallen angels.

Playing Bach To Calm the Mind and Soul

Playing Bach to Calm the Mind and Soul

I miss my piano
soon I will buy a piano
and resume playing 
the piano 

I like playing Bach
the most
it clams my mind
and my soul

as I loose myself
playing the music
getting into it
with my body
and soul

as the music 
transport me
deep within
calming my soul

A Bach Fugue

The music cannot be denied,
it unwinds like an articulated dragon
through a metallically ringing void.
Then there is the silk serpent
hidden in the driving engine
the closed-eyed coiling.

The hairs in my ears dance;
the notes are calling out stars;
not the ones we see,
but dark stars
born in the disheveled rooms
of fallen angels.

Listening To Bach

I crave the timeless peace and joy
This music often brings
To souls with whom the world would toy
And run around in rings.

Careless of mood, the master speaks
With string and pipe and voice;
No other strain my spirit seeks,
My Desert Island choice.

His counterpoint and melody
Shine through when days are dark;
None brings such solace yet, but he :
Johann Sebastian Bach.

my guitar strings 
were tightly wand 
as I leaned against 
the cellos hard surface
 
clinging hopelessly to the fullness 
of a familiar tune bellowing 
from a charming piano dazzled 
I was softly moved by the harps 

descant chanting upon 
thee unveiling of the violins 
motionless melody creating 
a sensational fluttering of bees 

beneath the echoing shallow 
breaths of my  panting lures
