Violin

I woke up with the whisper of the morning, when the trees sway with a lazy hush. I walked on the sweaty grass, on everlasting green. And I sat next to the wise old tree, source of my inspiration, keeper of my muse.

She sang visual emotions in my ears. She seduced my mind with poetic stories, and unlikely encounters. And the wind added rhythm to the joints of her hips as she danced in the corner of my eyes.

But wait….a hop here, and a hop there.

A brown locust, with the least of worries, dared to wander so close to my feet. It did well to scare off my muse, hollow my thoughts.

My heart pumped anger through my veins. And as I was about to crush the life out of him, he spread out his wing, rubbed his foot against it, and out came a song.

He said, “Hear my plea, hear the song I play, the symphony to which you sleep night after night.

    So quick we are to become aggravated with the intrusions in our plans. As you point out it is ironic that those little intrusions are the true pleasures of life

    Strange isn’t it…..that we become so self absorbed sometimes that we miss out on the most miraculous events. Great read.

  • bloorain replied 28 days ago

    You are right; we miss out on a lot! It is sometimes those little things that changes an ok day to a great day!
