Woodwind Duet
WOODWIND DUET
The oboe and the clarinet went out one night for a curry.
The clarinet was short of cash but the oboe said, “Don’t worry,
I’ve had a couple of gigs this week, so I can afford to pay.”
The clarinet, “Thank you dear, I’ll pay another day.
They had a harmonious evening, the best one they’d had yet.
And

Woodwind Experience
My elementary experience in being a son,
Came as I lay pondering on how my heart was won.
Father had sung to me on a woodwind Shawm.
I had felt His tender mercies melt my icy dawn.
Next came the strings with high and low stirrings.
These layers hemmed me in with notes appealing.

Woodwind Flute
Soft mist in air

sighing to banish past never rain
discern woodwind flute made of apricot wood
reminding thou flowers upper part hood
forging its ancient risen saints
to cuddle each and away faints
thus past will never be forgotten
thy heart yet softens

"woodwind"
Lethargic I sit
Beneath the stage lights
In awating of breath
to bring me to life
(a verse i play,a chorus in waiting)
My notes are
Daintly gentle,
Delicately soft.
As you move up my body
With the gliss of grace,
The heart will fly
Into a crescendo of heat
Into diminished softness
I reside...
Delicately gentle,
Daintly soft
To bring life,
A breath awates.

Woodwind
Sun glared down as Breeze ruffled her hair
Teasingly lifting her skirts
Stroking her lovingly
With deft invisible hands
Her arms swayed in unison with waves
Of constant caresses
Sending the scent of her wafting ghostly
Through summer shades
She felt her lifeblood rise within her
Holding tightly to Mother Earth
Up through the rooted whole of her
Filling tingling fingers with joy
Sighs
