Serenade

For Katelyn and Laura….

Rush to my Heart So I May Listen
As the Moment Sweetly Unfolds;
Play Upon my Dearest Notions,
In Swells and Sighs, Like Fens and Wolds.

Stir my Senses, Lyric Melody,
Glory to my Attentive ear;
Symphonic Mastery, Ply Thy Magic,
To my eye Bring Joyous Tears.

Uplifting Serenade of Beauty,
Like a Dove O’re All is Flying;
Splendor Rides Upon Thy Wing,
While I Stand, Entranced and Sighing.

.

For the Soul is Music itself.

These Beautifully stirring and thought-provoking words were written by an inspiring fellow blogger (Ihsan at http://www.iithinks.wordpress.com). When I read them I was instantly swept away by their immensity and connotation.
How I Cherish this thought, that the Soul within each one of us is Music. How exceedingly lovely to think of the Soul as Melody, Harmony, Rhythm, Breath, Song, and Sweetly Symphonic Sound.

Imagine, if you will, Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, Handel, or the like, coming directly to you with the express Purpose of sharing their masterpieces with you and you alone, asking only that you should enjoy the sounds, the sensations, the beauty of that playing so they might find Joy in that sweet Harmonious Union. Imagine sitting in the same room, listening in rapt silence, opening yourself to the Artful Majesty and Inexpressible Mystery of their most stunning orchestrations, allowing yourself to be swept away by the emotion and passion that Transcends Time with each and every note.

Yes, I’ve done that once or twice, and I’m sure you have done as well, if not one of those perhaps Chopin, Debussy, Rachmaninoff, (Depeche Mode?) Yes even modern music has the ability to capture us, transport us, to instill in us whatever emotion it intends. Music is one of the most powerful mysteries Mankind has ever known.

To digress for the briefest moment, one of my favourite movies, Immortal Beloved, expresses this mystery so poignantly. It is the story of Beethoven, his life, his loves, his music. In it, he briefly discusses the power of music with a fellow musician.

Ludwig van Beethoven: [in reference to “Violin Sonata in A Major, Op. 47” – “Kreutzer”… ] “Do you like it?
Anton Felix Schindler: Shh!
Ludwig van Beethoven: I cannot hear them, but I know they are making a hash of it. What do you think? Music is… a dreadful thing. What is it? I don’t understand it. What does it mean?
Anton Felix Schindler: It – it exalts the soul.
Ludwig van Beethoven: Utter nonsense. If you hear a marching band, is your soul exalted? No, you march. If you hear a waltz, you dance. If you hear a mass, you take communion. It is the power of music to carry one directly into the mental state of the composer. The listener has no choice. It is like hypnotism.”

This power to connect directly to the Spirit must come from the Spirit itself, from the One who created the Spirit.  Can there be any other conclusion? All creatures, whether human or animal, understands the intricacies of music and we all surround ourselves with elaborate, stirring, glorious (or not) sounds.  It must be because the Spirit itself yearns for that Sweet Communion. Communication between Divine Spirit and Created Spirit, crossing the barriers of Space, of Time, of Existence and Eternity; Touching and Understanding, if only for the briefest of moments through Melodious, Magical Symphony.

Words
Like Music Singing Low
Soft and Sensual
Sweet and Slow
Beguiling
Notion of hypnotic Splendor
Words Align
To Alluringly Engender
Words
Spoken by you to me
Casual and Gentle
Unhurried, Free,
Captivating
Magic of Lyrical Majesty
Words Paint
The hollowness of this Heart
In me
Words
Of Tender, Enigmatic Beauty
Whispering
Lingering
Across the periphery
Words
Balancing the inevitable equation
Words from the Heart
My Words would emblazon.

.

I am She who Sings on the breeze

Through the delicate green tresses

Of my Sister Trees;

I am She who Waltzes upon the Shore

In Time with Eternity

Hand in hand with Lore;

I am the Whispering Hush of Night,

The Thunderous Splendour

Of New Morning’s Light;

I am the Waking Lavender Twilight,

Stillness Soothing through the

Soft Shifting Light;

I am the Herald of Seasons Turning,

I am the Fervor of Apollo’s Burning,

I am the Kiss of the Silent Stars

Glistening in the Sweet Heavens afar;

I am She who Gives Life,

Breathing Radiance and Mystery;

I am She who walked among

All Verdant History;

Pause and Listen to my Melodic Song!

Close your eyes,

Breathe Deep and Long,

To Know I am She

Who Sings Her Song for you,

Ever Tender,

Ever Passionate,

Timeless and True.

.

.

Thank You for these words that Sing from Your Spirit

Thank You, with Humility, that I endlessly Hear it!

Mother, Father, Sister, Brother,

You are The Source, Unmatched by Another!

~Morgan~

Speak from the place where Love Resounds

Without a whisper or single sound;

Heartbeat Ringing

as the Universe is Singing,

Bleak in the Midnight’s Subtle river,

Indigo Shadows and moonlight slivers;

Ah the Sweetest sound of your Love!

And Everything it Blithely consists of!

Talk to me without words or phrases

As the Candlelight, Your body praises;

In the maelstrom of Desire’s syncope ,

Me Whispering You,

You Whispering Me;

Delight passing through Velvet Hours

This Sweetest Love Blossoming as Blushing Flowers.

.

~Morgan~

#Musicand#MuseMonday – The Morning- #Sonnet 40

.

Upon the morning stirs her Shimmering Light

As nighttide sleeps the Daytide Smiles;

Proclamation of Engendered Treasure

Beyond the compulsion of pretense and guile.

Untamed the Morning Sings a Blazing Song,

A harp string Reverberating loud;

Unmerited , we watch with shaded eyes

As Creation wakes and Smiles proud.

Listen then, if Breath be in your soul

And let the Music of her Smile Shine;

No other Serenade is as Glorious,

Nor like to Reach within and then Entwine!

With Life and Luster the Morning Radiantly Glows,

Stirring ethereally what seldom shows!

.

~Morgan~

Words Spun through willowy Time

Echoing,

Enchanting

In Harmonious Rhyme

Song Sung in the Birth of Breath

Melody Woven

In Life

In Death

Tranquility Dancing in each phrase

Ancient Whispers of Forgotten Praise

Breathe in Me

Most Melodious Rhyme

Spin Your Magic

Like Symphony Sublime

.

Delicate Touch of Unspoken Love

Echoing

Enchanting

From the Blissful Cosmos Above

Tapestry of poetic Calm

In Dapples of Light

In the Deep Breathless Balm

Patience Bending upon the Wing

Peaceful Unity Longing to Bring

Breathe in Me

O Most Melodious Rhyme

Weave your Serenity

A Masterpiece, Sublime!

Sing Sweet Spirit

Touch my Heart

Wake my Mind

Sing in Me

So I Sing in Kind!

Deliberate Ruse – #Poetry to #Music

Deliberate Ruse

He tries to Confuse

As the tumbling shadows rend subterfuge

He Whispers in Darkness

He Enchants in Moonlight

Deliberate Ruse

Intoxicatingly Right

A Silver Shadow in the Ebon Mist

No Sound; No Echo

Of His Deliberate Kiss

I, Standing in Waiting

He, Plummeting to Earth

As the Ruse of Deception

Rings in His Mirth

Winged Denizen

Gloriously Blinding

His Ravenesque Desire

Deliberately Spellbinding

As the Shadows Shift

And the dimness turns Bright

His Deliberate Temptation

Ever So Right!

.

Inspired by a truly Spellbinding poem entitled The Changeling by Trini Lind of Tales from the Fairies
