This new poem grew fairly quickly and interrupted what I was watching. It insisted that it was written and finished without any interruptions getting in the way.
It was nearly complete when I realised that it was a piece which complimented and extended an old poem of mine so I have included that one too.
The Singer And The Muse - 22 Feb 14
[Re-impassioned]
In a forest clearing
An ancient cottage stands
There my true Love lies
Waiting …
… Waiting
From the Ocean depths
I call to her ~ ask her to come
To be with me
Yearning …
… Yearning
I sing to my Muse ~ she answers
Fingers touch stroking playing
The keys of our Love
Growing …
… Growing
The Singer And The Muse
[The Original Version]
A broken melody
Charméd forth by fingers idly touching …
A key depressed
The Singer and the Muse join hands
A hummingbird flies
A sweet song in a minor key
Brings tears to ancient eyes
And deep within a hidden valley
A fountain plays
Far from the sight and sign of man
When I can recall the date when this first version was written I shall insert it here.
I guess that these are both "limite surréaliste" and Love songs too.

ReplyDeleteI felt that the new poem would not be complete without the inclusion of the original version.
