Composer

Listen!

Did you hear it?

That melody’s alive and breathes

With subtle text and poignant line

And haunting harmonies.

No!

Your face reveals it;

You haven’t heard what I feel.

What I hear as magical, alive,

Just leaves you cold as steel.

Wait!

Don’t turn away yet.

You haven’t heard the whole.

Lips, hands and heart must grasp its form

Before you feel its soul.
