A fine write Gold.
Yet - love, bringing in a higher Being? Called Him, Her, God, or god?

Accidental Poet said:
The greatest gift a father can give to his son is his legacy of love for music. A wonderful tribute to your father Andy. ; )

A very moving tribute dear Andy to your Father who gave you the wonderful love of music - - -- and what an example of it you have chosen for us to here - I have always loved the piano version of Clair de Lune.

Good one, Andy. My Dad had beautiful hair I have none. Still, look like the man who taught me to step and throw and not talk past the close.

By emulating those in your life is the greatest honor you can bestow on them, just as you have so poetically recognized your father here.

You have chosen one of my absolute favourite pieces of music today.
Indeed you are a lucky man to have had such a wonderful father. I read on MPS of several who have not been so fortuneate and strive within their poetry to come to terms with their place in the world and society around them.
Thank goodness they have found poetry and its self healing properties.

So Very Long Ago.

So addicted to English cathedrals, despite no religion. And despite the awareness of the wealth and power they symbolise for me.
The soaring sense of peace and space. Definitely bigger inside than out (please don’t mention Tardis) I would sit there in awe, wonder about it’s construction…never heard anything…perhaps I should revisit with your sensibility, Andy.

so true Andy, I think Michael shared a painting
of a derelict or empty church a few months back
that could have added a wonderful garnish to your write
( https://mypoeticside.com/show-poem-127725 )..
I agree, there\'s something residually powerful
about buildings that have soaked-up
the churning of time and survived
somehow, they posses a gravitas
beyond simple concepts of legacy
in-fact, its much more tangible and vivid
like the feel of dancing lights
from behind closed eyes
as we look up to that distance sun
but feel its warmth, like a caress...

As a man who latterly used his hands to earn a crust in the construction industry I tend to look upon those fine old buildings as the places I would have been called upon to build had i been around then. (and who knows considering reincarnation etc).
Churches especially talk to those of us who will sit in peace and contemplate, so I am with you in the spirit of your post today.
Lovely music, unfamiliar to me.

Let her starlight fall upon you
As her love for you absorbs your tears
Your heart embraced by her too

A poignant write Gold.
It\'s said the grieving process can take 18 months to 2 years, and then we never fully forget, of course. Not that we want to forget.
There\'s odd things like unexpected tears. With me, one thing was almost crawling around the floor some days, due to feeling worn out.
