Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is music.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.
A philosophical number poem for a singer-songwriter who uses her past as the soil for her creation:
Sixty-five suspends her animation,
Immersed within a wistful melody.
Xylophones accompany her song,
The wave of wonder rising from her sea,
Yearning overwhelming all sensation.
For her the past is neither right nor wrong.
Instead it is the soil for her creation,
Vast fields of darkness sown by memory,
Ever yielding tunes she must pass on.
