poet fingerstender and delicate
strum my heart with
braille melody
pirouettingon breeze and breath
of hope’s horizon
only witnessed by
my soul
and southern bound geese
who lingerto hear one last
verse
before journeying
into tomorrow
with spirits aflutter
like my ownmarveling at the wonder
of his beautiful
tender and delicate
poet fingers
strumming my heart

Oh yes.....here it is....those fingers that strum, the heart that drums, the caress pulled to the brast...nicely penned.

Beautiful "braille melody". Love the "pirouetting on breeze and breath of hope's horizon". Skillfully used alliterism. I enjoyed your description of the delight of both the fascinated young lady and enchanted flock of geese; "spirits aflutter/like my own". Nice mirroring/parallelism [?can't keep terms straight!] of first three and last three lines. Very enjoyable
