Poetry list
A cavatina of music's power
On the train home from Mahler’s 3rd
Are music and the mind the same, ‘in tune’?
The soul says no!
The notes are heard in time yet evermore
Their echoes flow
Enriching every age on timeless shore
Where love doth grow.
The beauty of the heart and mind and soul
Sing sweet and low:
This music makes us one in mystery’s power –
All thoughts released from limit’s self and hour.
