Fur Elise Night grows Steadily Beating back Day’s star Weary weight Wrapping all In twilight’s Violets Calling forth It’s wind And silent Sweep Of rain In measured meter Tapping hopeful Refrain within Melancholy Weaving Melody Into purpling Greys Then black temper’s fury Flares, blares, brief deluge Tempers Tapers To lilting End ~wranx In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward". |

Methinks you are a renaissance man. ---Commentaries on art and now Beethoven! As I've said before, there's more to you than meets the reader's eye! Loved this piece---it's a classic! ~ smiles to you this fine fall morning ~ Linda [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-26-2002 01:05 PM).] |

This is incredible!! As I read down the page... I actually sang these words to the melody of Fur Elise in my mind...and you know... they seemed to fit... Now I shall have this hauntingly beautiful melody in my mind all day... Thank you! ~Morning Hugs~ ~ Time has cast a spell on you |

I can play that one on the piano. But not nearly as well as you can write it. |

How this brings back to many memories, one of the first pieces I learned of the classics, and my mother's hand on my back, "straight! straight! curve the fingers, count, count!" Oh yes...many many memories... |
