In The Storm

Missing image

In the storm the music plays,

no raindrops can ever drown

the instrument within the soul,

obeying the song,

strumming those strings

found in the heart,

a passion's notes

nothing silences.

 

It is a overpowering solo

performed by the soul,

uncaring the audience or plight,

nor the test of day.

 

Because the melody

was written upon the spirit,

as an undeniable serenade,

their sounds ever demanding release

from place residing

within the mind's composure.

 

Accepting as companion

that fated implement of tones,

first heard by the ears,

which gave desire one couldn't control

to repeat the magic that it inspired.

    Beautiful sir. Absolutely beautiful.
    Couldn't get any better, best wishes,

    Ahhh that music inside heart and soul. I usually whistle or hum that inner melody, that keep my feet tapping, happy steps in song. Yes i love my music, it is sweet to my heart and melodic to my soul, bringing smile to my lips. Delightful write whether in storm or bright daylight.
