Eyes straining to focus
whilst my mind keeps replaying
the melodic orchestral beats
of "The Blue Danube"
heart and soul completely
entranced by such an enigma
yet .............
this angel dancing on my table
was never anything more
than trompe l'oeil
Author notes

I like your music box dancer take on the prompt... or maybe it was just a memory, or an illusion the remembered strains of music evoked. Congratulations on the HM.
