Mirror In The Mirror.

Goldfinch60



Yet again I happened,

I was on my computer

And as ever the radio was on,

Classical music was playing

And that piece of music played

And I just stopped,

Stopped what I was doing

And sat there,

Sat there listening,

Listening to the music,

Listening to that wonderful piece.

I could do nothing else

Nothing else except listen

As I do every time I hear it,

Hear that piece of music,

Spiegel im Spiegel.

It takes me to a place of wonder

Where life is so calm

And so beautiful,

A place I get taken to,

A place where music takes me.

So I say thank you

Thank you Arvo Part,

Thank you for your music,

That mirror in the mirror.
