Music garden

Image of peace
Sitting at rest
Hand poised awaiting time
A gentle feeling in it’s place.

The hand descends
Like birdsong then
Sound of wonder flying
Free above the simple melody.

The sound of wind
On reed profound
A dreaming gentle peace
That soars upon the air and sky.

Music restrained
In wood and string
With hammers rising, falling
Hidden yet exploring hearts alive.

Together celebrate
We float and soar
‘To the sky, garden’s delight
With ears amazed at all our sight.
