A STILL MOMENT

A STILL MOMENT

 

In the midst of cacophony and noise

When all around, are voices shouting

A pure single note penetrates the air

Yet gradually all are silent and aware

Even those who may still be doubting

And with their clear lack of any poise

 

Then the note becomes more complex

As it evolves into an augmented chord

An added bass line sounds like thunder

To make so many jaws drop in wonder

The crowd, still silent, remaining awed

Few had ever experienced such effects

 

Strange glances reflect some confusion

All move apart like a group of islands

As the people share a strange reaction

Such sounds, a cause of dissatisfaction

But once again, it resolves into silence

Moving rapidly to a quiet conclusion
