This morning a piano played beautiful roses
by threading a melody; violin strings sighing
together inserted velvet caresses, the Skater’s
Waltz created a sequence of dancers in shiny
sequins, forming exciting spirals in the mind’s
frozen landscape
My consciousness turned to a positive state
following these movements up-and-down, new
hope filled my heart, I swung high up in the air;
sleds with bells tinkled along, I saw it all in my
mind’s eye, the music weaving colour-coded
pictures for me
The musical composition turned into a loom
weaving the rounded notes into enchanting
images of a magic, frosted scene reshaping
my consciousness; an alternate reality that
inspires beauty as I traverse this day,
filling it with meaning
Transcending grey duty in melodious tones
of harmonics playing joyfully…
