They used to think that I was wise
And knew all the stuff they did.
They saw me coming with those eyes
That said to them, he ain’t no kid.
They came to ask, beg and grovel
To moan and wipe a tearing eye.
They wouldn’t raise a dirty shovel
Nor wipe the wax till it was dry.
And when the howl did grow beyond
The level that would break a plate
Out came one tiny violin
And played a tune those kids did hate.
For……My heart bleeds for you….
And this is all I can say….
No matter what you say or do….
This violin will begin to play…

Wonder grew me in the wince of every whine
Cut right through me, sending shivers up my spine
Tantrum drumming pours out the heart within
Save the drama played upon this violin

Raised the voices upon heights shrill and loud
Surely reason run a muck in shadows shroud
Eyes still brimming that certain look belie
But larger lumen, this violin sized sigh

Of course compassion is in a parent's heart
To ease discomforts and keep regret apart
There knows no better a song played all the while
The tiniest of violins, accompanied sweet smile

I am finding so many lovely duets here at Passions in Poetry. I really enjoyed this!

This is something we use to exercise and
create as well as just have some fun....
And no one is too good or not good enough
to play...

Thank You and welcome to Passions.
