Upbeat Note

[anirbas]

Best to orchestrate
the parts of life
where one can...

Write the music!
Feel the joyous tremor
in an upbeat note

Be the conductor.
Lift the baton, yourself!
Air tap the count out
Lead the symphony
of your own life,
where you can...

So, when the dark clouds
of life roll in accompanied
by a dirge played in a minor key-
the parts of life one cannot invent-
we may at least endure and persevere
with a semblance of integrity and honor

Until we can dance, to the individual music
we love best, again...Our own musical scores...

Best to orchestrate
the parts of life
where one can...

Write the music!
Feel the joyous tremor
in an upbeat note

This is truly beautiful, 'Nir. I love the line "where you can." It breaks my heart that pain - physical pain, mental pain, and spiritual pain - can keep one from leading their symphony, from hearing the music, or from ever dancing the dance of life. And because my sister suffered from all three, I call her my unopened rose.
