Pianissimos and crescendos, I’d know them anywhere
Amidst a pile of rubble or bubbling from the air.
The heated glow of the notes, I’d capture through my hear
But left of you were three small words, sent
With no pitch, dynamic to my ear.

Shove a quarter in, pay the half of dollar.
Play it again Sam, the same in legato.
Emotionless, three little words over phone lines ring;
How intensely plain, their monotone can bring.
Words carefully chosen, centered in blots
of silence.

I don’t know silence or life without crescendo;
And through hole rests, have never waited well.

Oh Sadelite I LOVE this. Bravo indeed. You have done a wonderful job here. Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! This belongs back at the top and just made my #1 must read of the day list.

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

Your words are in "crescendo" dear Sadelite.
You capture the reader so well.

You also have me guessing ....

Love, Margherita

I read this poem three times, and each time I felt it on a deeper level. This was written very well, Dear Sadie.

LOVING HUGS,
