![]() A ViolinA Chapter by Dave Brown![]() yes![]() There’s
an old violin Hanging
on a wall A plain wall In
a room On
a hook It didn't complain But
it hung there in pain Thinking it was only supposed to hang Until it couldn’t quietly hang any more Now
it comes alive each night Its
broken string’s repair The
crack’s disappear And
it seeks out my ear Playing
at first lightly To
gently wake me from sleep And
when it sees me move It
increases the beat Sometimes
I think I am dreaming But
it is all very real From
the flat wall Where
it hangs quiet each day It
comes alive And
starts to play While
magic moves the bow It
plays tunes From
the wall From
the hook Through the room Its
music all glows And
when night is done And
daylight reappears The
music dims Until
it is heard by no ears The
finish fades The
cracks show The
strings sag Until day is gone It
sleeps Until
its next night’s glow © 2020 Dave BrownReviews
