No strings to pluck with fingertips
nor softly stroke with bend of bow,
and yet, their notes still reach these ears,
a cello played adagio.

The mournful timbre of its' tones,
the resonance with which it sounds
against the backdrop of these thoughts
is instrument enough, I've found.

Though sounds of wishes unfulfilled
and resonates a sense of loss,
perhaps, denying one that skill
it follows that would be star-crossed.

To hear such orchestrations play
yet only render them this way

Wow. Awesome Doc.
Much enjoyed. Chris

Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.

Somehow the resonance within is even more important than the surface music...as it is in so many things that are part of life.
