Rachmaninoff

What is Music? How do you define it? Music is a calm moonlit night, the rustle of leaves in Summer. Music is the far off peal of bells at dusk! Music comes straight from the heart and talks only to the heart: it is Love! Music is the Sister of Poetry and her Mother is sorrow!
Sergei Rachmaninoff

The strings of Rachmaninoff
Wafted through the rarefied air
Soothing her wrought up senses
Her tensions soon disappear
She feels peaceful, heavenly
With music pleasant to hear
 
She’s agitated of late
Yes, she shed many a tear
Dour awful events transpired
Near impossible to bear
Inconceivable to take
Her broke heart  needing repair
 
Fearlessly she bore it all
And gazed heavenward in pray’r
Suddenly a melody
Seemingly from everywhere
Sounds of a string concerto
Calmed, lifted her from despair
 
Music, that which can’t be said
Finds way to the heart instead
