For the Love of Music, the Words I can hear it in the fabric singing silk and touching velvet when music takes a shaking hand from what was ache to grace I know you understand Not always a band this sound’s alive a filigree of light and shadow holding warmth inside like glove causing all who hear sweet nectar to know the rhyme is love Take this canister it’s filled with gold and given without greed or return request to plant the seed for in the bloom that music makes there’s no mistaken beat or bramble within the opening gate that plants a pulse so true that melody is swept from sky to you the sound for you ------- Hi Pip friends....it has been a long time...my muse is such a wimp, she hides from words, how absurd!! She got inspired this morning though, and forgot to be afraid, you know? She listened with heart instead of with sleeve and let me write, I can hardly believe. Was music the master all along, that sowed my gown and gave me strong....she said to me with much delight, sticking my tongue out at her seemed right.. Still she loves the music and I love the ink....and sometimes we harmonize, I think.  |

Hi, Martie Flowers! If music makes your word garden grow, then please listen to the bluebells and write on!  I was about to send an angel posse after you! Your sweet poetic presence has been sorely missed! Giving you a great big loving hug, Linda |

"I can hear it in the fabric singing silk and touching velvet when music takes a shaking hand from what was ache to grace..." That is beautiful. |

Sometimes a wait can produce something lyrical - I liked the (unintentional?) internal meter to this. A few not-quite-rhymes, intermixed on some lines to make me feel a slight back beat rhythm as I read. Well done Martie |

Take this canister it’s filled with gold and given without greed or return request to plant the seed for in the bloom that music makes there’s no mistaken beat or bramble within the opening gate that plants a pulse so true that melody is swept from sky to you the sound for you oh Martie,... just lovely words here! RDB Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight......... |

Dearheart, I do believe that this poem has bloomed at just the right time. Your muse, she knew what was going on... And you've even given me some food for thought!  |

When excellence speaks of excellence....listen. And what better voice to speak of the music we share here, than one whose voice is beloved? Sing, Martie, sing! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Beautiful music produces great thoughts and great thoughts produce great music. How fortunet to be the bearer of both.  A day without music, like a day without poetry, is not to be endured...write on my friend.  Bea |
