Tribute to Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini Many warm melodies we are blessed with This composer Rachmaninoff has written Prelude in C sharp minor, his concertos It’s this Rhapsody that has me bitten Like no other its notes float on light air Tell of transports celestial kisses Starlight dancing on moonbeams with flair Candle gleams chilled wine ‘tis what bliss is Float with me off to this ballroom Wearing chiffon off the shoulder As the notes play I’ll just see the love light In your eyes growing bolder and bolder The music swells into crescendos Pressed close our dancing grows heated Passionate kissing our tribute to music Tonight is the night we’ll be mated < !signature--> There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~Janet Marie~ [This message has been edited by Wilfred Yeats (edited 11-10-2000).] |

If you listen closely, you can hear the music!!! Lovely Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass |

Wil, Rachmaninoff will never be the same for me now that I've read this. Be well Kethry Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. Gail Sheehy |

Yes, Mr. Yeats....just so.... thank you... thank you... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Bill--the music and the dance...two things that will live one...and a third, poetry. |
