Wrapped in Rhapsody Twilight beckons, stage is set Whispers of music, by night Silence hushed, the perfect duet With intro, my heart takes flight Two in romantic, radiant rhythm Ballad, most beautiful song Played in double time, too numb Blissful embrace, never too long Hold fast till final Fermata Last echo of piano’s key Moonlight beams, of our private Sonata Wrapped in tranquil rhapsody Marina May 2000 |

Marina, this is beautiful. One of my favorite piano pieces is Moonlight Sonata. This reminded me of that! ![]() |

Marina, Lovely blend of music, poetry, romance, kindled by a dance... Loved this one... Regards, sudhir In any moment of decision, The best thing you can do is the right thing, The next-best thing is the wrong thing, And the worst thing you can do is nothing. - Theodore Roosevelt |

Denise, thanks I'm glad you liked it.Now I have probably put that tune in your head for days and come Monday you will be ready to kill me. Sven, what would passion be without a little music and moonbeams. Thank you Jm, such a wonderful compliment from one who's pen has a flow of it's own. Thank you. Jeffery, thank you, I very much appreciate your compliment and your encouragement of my work. Of course I know you are only saying it because you want me to take you Honky Tonkin! Terry, your post was lovely. I glad you liked it, thank you. Sudhir, thank you. I guess I should have added candles to make it complete. Marina |

Sounds like a lovely evening...I also love Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata...especially the softness of Adagio sostenuto and the intensity of Presto agitato James |
