It happened again
Once more I stopped,
Stopped writing,
Stopped reading,
Stopped as this music
Sailed into my soul.
The Queen of the Night
Came into the light of my day.
Her glorious notes
Sailing through me.
The beauty so wondrous,
All I could do was listen in wonder
As this rapturous song assailed me,
Yet again he overwhelmed me
As once more his magic took me,
Took me to that heaven,
That heaven that is,
The magic of Mozart.

- Comment from author about the poem: I heard this on the radio about twenty minutes ago and had to write about it. This is what music can do to me so very often.

Mozart would be proud to read this Goldie. ; )
Thank you AP, most kind.
Incredible music, incredible poem! It is amazing what music can do to us, or maybe better for us.
As a side note, even though my mother tongue is German, without the subtitles I wouldn't have understood a word!
I am fluent in two languages Fred, English and Rubbish. I too need subtitles.
Thank you for your kind comment I am a bit of a Mozart nut I have all his recorded TWICE, one set on CDs and one set on an ipod.
A fine write Gold. Any Mozart at the 1066 reunion - the evening soiree?
Sorry Mozart wasn't born until 1756, don't you remember us seeing him born and that first symphony written a day later!
I saw a special on Mozart a while back. Interesting how a guy could be such a jerk personally, as well as a genius musically. I suppose his muse wasn't judgmental. Not a 'nice' person, but what gifts he gave us! Good write, Goldie!
Thank you Louis, it just goes to prove how music can let us forgive such a man.
Wonderful tribute
Thank you Tony, much appreciated.
Welcome
A wonderful poem. I find it amazing what music can inspire us to do and feel. As other writers have said, even after decades and centuries. Well done!
