Chopin's Nocturnes.

Goldfinch60



From where do these sounds come?

So soft, so pure, so soulful.

The sounds transported from the page

Through the skill and passion of the pianist,

To slide gently though our ears;

Into our very souls.

 

Chopin, this man I once derided

As being able to make me sad

No matter how good I was feeling;

Slowly turning my thoughts

To the utter beauty and wonder,

Of the music he created.

    Oh yes, until proven, his name doesn’t do much for him, chopping, chopsticks 🎹, show pan… but the music given the privilege of ear is fantastic! 🕊🙏🏻
