In The Eye of a Musical Hurricane

As I listen to the words

Knitted in music and rhythm

The sense flows down my ears

Which my heart begins to fathom

The string of words dance gracefully

Like a delicate scent conquering over the air

Luring me into getting lost

And falling in love with what the song bears.

But the music itself seems like a storm,

All raged up and striding away

Leaving behind a rich patina

That makes the song so rich yet fray

Fray because it wearing away

And revealing its greater secrets

I’m now staring into the writer’s eyes

Words amassing into a human face.

And so a song is so human to me

Yet divine and chaste, with sanctity.

Here in the eye of this musical hurricane

Is where I find my soul, my serenity
