Elongated notes…drawn out intent on serious sigh
A major in the key of be…breathy in accord held high
Yet sweet as summer, for every one born of the spring
Imaginations troubadour, set free a fantasy to sing

And fife and flute become the quarter note
A minor consolation in the ever-falling anecdote
Yet sung by heart to fullest of the lungs expanse
With luster in the falling on the ear, a muses dance

And sung with true conviction, and seen through blinded eye
When found an apparition, to the self an open lie
Yet partly to be truthful, and partly thus enchants
For often dreams become the very real circumstance

They can become, can't they?  I hope that
all of your dreams do just that.  Singing
tonite,  Lady of the Golden Tongue and Pen!

They can become real sometimes.
This is something that only a poet at heart could write..
"And fife and flute become the quarter note
A minor consolation in the ever-falling anecdote
Yet sung by heart to fullest of the lungs expanse
With luster in the falling on the ear, a muses dance"

Nicely done indeed.
