~~~
The use of magical, mystical, musical
Words in the weave and weft of verbal tapestries,
Painting pictures in shades and tints,
Writing rhythms with thumps and bumps,
Thwacks and slaps,
With calming, soothing deviations, variations
Juxtaposed to compare and expose,
Reveal and disclose
Moods and sensations,
Perceptions, impressions…
~~~

This poem began seriously, then graduated to ‘tongue-in-cheek’ musical rhythms, and back to seriousness, John. It just happened that way. 🙂
