…here are two forms of reflection on the concept of melody…
Off Key
•
version 1
nature is a song
a melody transcendent
sung in harmony
but this chorus is threatened
humankind grows discordant
•
version 2
a melody transcendent
sung in harmony
but she will not sing along
likely she would sing off key

sometimes
in the clatter
of a thoughtless moment
I forget to listen
fail to hear
the tender lilt
of our heartsong
but
when I am quiet
and we are close
our melody of love
is all I hear
please forgive
my selfish noise
rejoin me
in our sweet duet
I miss
your gentle voice
