The Endless Fables of Love and Tragedy

The writer of songs wishes to compose for his lover yet to come, 

he asks the night if she will come as a floret in the wind 

to caress him as a candle’s light, the lyrical harmony of 

his beloved is clearer than the shower of the spheres 

upon the deep violet petals, he rests into slumber 

as a dreamlike vision appears of her hands softer 

than velvet in motion upon the strings of the mandolin, 

the gazes of him and her rivet as the one, gentle hymn of their souls,

he harrowly arouses then walks to his thistly rose garden, revelation 

arrives to him so he returns home to begin the inking of the symbols 

on the music sheet papers, through his symphonies, he 

resolves to tell the endless fables of love and tragedy.
