"Autumn Leaves"
My memory, your harmony,..
********
********
I intone your Song, your Song, Your Song
Your Voice soothes monsters, mad in my mind !
You slay their constant hold on me
Your Voice soothes monsters, mad in my mind !
You slay their constant hold on me
Your auburn hair shines
September's Sun; a
gold rouged Mountain you rake for me
"Play, kids, jump. jump. jump!" you Smile,
you watch our eyes-
Who do you see?
I hold, embrace my memory
I Keep you Live
My Heart designs
desires
to see you -
not to wait
for my BeLoved Nina

Agree with Brian and June, a touching poem for your Virtuoso.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful, poignant and touching Cheryl. It's so beautifully woven with love. Especially liked "My Heart designs/desires/to see you -
ReplyDeletenot to wait" I feel that way about my grandmothers too. I wonder if my grandchildren will feel the same? Lovely tribute. Interestingly, this is my signature song. Has been since I was 12. Some co-incidence. Thank you for sharing it! Gay @beachanny
I love the first line... Your memory, my harmony, this is differently lyrical and can be played on the piano, lovely One Shot,

Thank you all so very much for your thoughtful feedback! You have made this newcomer feel welcome...
ReplyDeleteThank you, Brian Miller. Love underlines, composes so much of our Art, doesn't it... :)
June_Butterfly, many thanks! I hope to see your Writing soon.
dustus, I am honored, (& feel tempted to capitalize your name, even tho I use random upper case throughout my Writing.) :)
Beachanny, thank you! I'm pleased your "signature song" has floated around my head for Days. :) I can still hear her singing...sigh...Thank you so much for the lovely comments, especially in pointing out Word-choice. You've been so kind to me since I met you. I need to find Time to Read more Writing *yours*.
joanny , how very lovely of you...Yes, I have Music in my head 24/7 , as does my son, the tiny Virtuoso above :) Thank You so much.

I look forward to Reading all of you, talented Writers/Poets/Poetesses/Dreamers. :) I feel humbled & honored that you took the Time to Read a tidbit of mine. I hope to see more of you.
Thanks so much, Peace&Smiles,

ps dustus... I imagine he will be able to play "Autumn Leaves" in the near Future...he probably does already, but he's still a bit undisciplined...& would rather accompany The Doors, Kate Bush, or (my husband's) Tori Amos.
ReplyDeleteThanks. So sweet. :)
Very lively and poignant, loved reading it... thanks for sharing...
