Muse, Music and Colors In the wee early hours between two and three, my Muse came a’tiptoeing into my dream. She brought with her Music and Colors by name and began to play an unusual game. “Good morrow” spoke Muse, uncapping her wand, “I’m here to share things from the great beyond.” In detail then appeared in my dream’s misty haze a scene from which I couldn’t unlock my gaze. Without further word Muse beckoned, and the dancing began, Red and Orange erupted into a wild and colorful can-can, Yellow then swirled and spun in to Music’s delight, joined Amber and became a most beautiful sight. Lavender began a-twirling, and lacy Cream gave a glance as Black and White swayed together, locked in a lover’s dance. Pink strolled the ballroom floor, looking lovely and fine, Gray came promptly along and paired up with Wine. Soon Purple and Gold waltzed to a slow Ballad’s tune, Greens and Blues twirled to a lovely, mystical rune, then slowly Music became soulful, softly fading away all of the colors coming together in one massive sway. Luminescence filled the ballroom’s parquet floor Iridescent colors all pleading “Please, one dance more!” Twilight’s shadow now looking for Morning’s first ray all colors coming to a slow halt before the calm new day. The couplets became quadruplets, Music fades to quiet, as they all began to stroll back into the late night, Music still lingered sweetly on in my dream As Sun stood waiting for Moon’s last silvery beam. This story it seems, shall never really end for someone’s Muse shall pick up that other Muse’s pen and will then take Music and Colors by name and begin this wonderful Dance all over again. 25 August, 1999 ©KRJ |
