Painful Notes

I heard an angel
crying in the dark alone
as a sad violin song
in the middle of the night
and all those painful notes
are tearing me apart

Premium Member The Weeping Violin

Pure and pleading, cascading feelings
Reel from the old violin.
Whether one string or many
Her notes rend the air
and all are held captive there.

A Symphony of Pain

Heart piercing violin
dull sounds of a piano
vibrating your voice 
through my soul
an impulse not
mistaken to be 
the drums of my heart
... running

 Who was playing a violin out back
   Making music with his bow

 Fiddling with sweet Juliet in the sack

The Violin

The conductor though the violin sound bad
Stepped on it, then suddenly got mad
He tossed it up high
It fell back from the sky
When crushed, he suddenly felt sad

Premium Member The Cat and the Violin

There once was a cat
who was really quite fat
his likes were pets, food, sleep
but of music, not a peep
when he saw the violin case
he ran away, as if in a race

desperate for one solitary ray of moonlight

It Is Still Winter

It's still winter
but it's hot
Will we ever meet winter like winter?
violin.......
Why war always be beyond the fence of peace?
And won't my heart be shaken
by someone I don't love?

Chess - the Other Side of the Story

The game of chess
Some say it is a pastime
I know who said "It's no a whit inferior to the violin"
I used to play regularly 
But now I have dumped chess for poetry
Mistake - maybe.....

Premium Member Dreams to Dust

     A pony 
       her dream 
          only

     orthodontics
       violin lessons
         yearly safaris

       these exigencies 
         dreams to dust
            duly turn

Violin

In the corner of a room lies a violin 
That keeps some tender secrets of long ago 
When she was just a girl, barely seventeen 
And he loved her so much, but little did she know

Marriage

has three rings - Engagement rings,
Wedding rings and Sufferings;
Like a Violin lover,
after the music's over,
Ah, attached still are the strings!
