     The Universal Symphony

On this night of vast imaginings
  and infinite dreams,
my mind is the crystal evening sky;
my sprit the boundless, untamed
  wilderness;
and my heart, the Winter moon.
If we are perhaps the instrument
  of any grand design,
and our lives a mystic melody,
then love is the harmony of all
  time.
Though she knows not,
nor perhaps would care,
there is now only one
for whom I would pen that
grand universal symphony.

You're 'Universal Symphony' is a true classic from birth. That there is one for whom you would pen your opus is one who is the lesser for not receiving it in the spirit in which you write it.

Splendid work SHDP!

Spellbinding, dear Bruce! Whether "she" knows or not, she surely has inspired you wonderfully.

Thanks, Margherita ...

She apparently knows it ... and it likely 'matters not' ... unrequited love ... the most painful of all! ...

Unrequited love painful though it may be makes for some great poetry.

Unrequited love, painful as it may be, generates some beautiful poetry.

love these lines....

If we are perhaps the instrument
of any grand design,
and our lives a mystic melody,
then love is the harmony of all
time.

So true, above all love is the greatest catalyst of human emotion.

Great words!
