The tears came to my eyes,
He had died,
This man who created so much music.
But it wasn’t just music,
He wrote emotion
That would enter my body
With so much feeling
That my world stopped
As I sat and listened in awe.
As I listened the voices would come,
Sailing above the tune,
In complete harmony
With the music,
And with me.

- Comment from author about the poem: When I heard yesterday that Ennio Morricone I was so sad, he brought so much wonderful music to the world through the cinema. I have a great deal of his work and many of you will know the music to the Spaghetti westerns but he wrote film scores for over 400 films. Rest In Peace Ennio.

A sensitive write Gold.
Meanwhile - tears came to your eyes, when I sang? Tears of joy, of course! heehee.
Thanks Orchi.
Some music can bring tears to your eyes but with your singing they are tears of sorrow.
