Virtuoso🎻

Everything about this leads to the resolution... Much like a piece of music or musical performance... it left me feeling at peace...  
 
I don't know if you have seen this or not - but I am amending...

Where this poem took me was to my favorite moment in music from unresolution to resolution - the Kryie from Mozart's Requiem.  The last 30 seconds build in grace-filled intense beauty to the last note of the 1st repetition of the kyrie eleison, which leads the ear to a moment of eloquent overwhelming disharmony.  Followed by a the resolving repetition that has the horns elevating the resolution beyond it's normal chord - to be first smacked with its unresolve only to be stroked in its resolution - that was the feeling as I read and reread your piece...

I youtubed the Mozart so that it could play while I typed - that was the set up... The take-down was the next song on the youtube list: Schubert's Ave Maria in German (I did not know it was coming as I was off screen).  So having put through my paces by Mozart, I was then basking in its afterglow with this tenderness of Schubert...  

Tell me, is it bad etiquette to be visibly weeping in Starbucks?    

After listening to the music I understand better how you linked it to the poem, or perhaps visa versa.  I'm so pleased you embraced it, and I'm not sure but it was bound to happen one day (in Starbucks). *crooked smile*

Now this I like - subtle and intelligent - a pleasure to read.  S.O.

A finer reception of my poetry I couldn't ask for.  Thank you so much for sharing this with me.

This is simply a beautiful poem, It left me wanting more of it to tell the truth, it was wonderful.

John, thank you so very much.  I always feel it's good to leave the reader wanting rather than dissatisfied.  But of course that wasn't my intent when I wrote the piece.  That makes it even better because as each reader lets me know how they've been impacted, it vindicates the poem is well structured and therefore more natural.

Mesmerizing, Jade. Simply.

Oh dear Ahavati,
I somehow had missed a number of comments to my poem, and stumbled back to find them at last.  Please accept my late reply and forgive my lateness.  I hold dear your thoughts of anything I do that you would embrace and hold close in return.  I am just as mesmerized as the weep of the virtuoso mingles high in the rafters...

and I thank you when you share your heart's words.

This is as close to music as the written word can be I heard, the violin with the sapphic sounds as a woman plays.The poem carries a gentle murmur that only a woman.can convey.Male violinists can be harsh as in live relationships Thankyou

I'm very touched by your sensory vision of my piece, and how it carries you.  I thank you, Kexby, for sharing the sweetness of it.

(please pardon my lateness in replying)

This is, quite simply, a masterpiece. I could not imagine a more sensual experience given in poetry.

Poetry is the nuanced intersection of music and sex, and you clearly demonstrated that in this poem.

You are definitely a virtuoso of poetry.

Stunning poem. I am really enjoying reading your work, thank you for sharing.

Your comment, among others, that were left to languish, as I was under the weather from an injury for a few days, and then didn't return for my vague memory from the recovery.  Please forgive my lateness, for there's no chance I would have deliberately taken to let your amazing comment remain, like fallen fruit, in the brush, unattended.    
   
If I wax poetic in my belated reply, it's because I'm reminded of my first time reading your comment, and being overwhelmed to speak.

there is heart-rending torment here, in the weeping, the sobbing;
suffering for music, as for art.
& still it is beautiful...

Being ashamedly late in my reply to your soulful comment, John, I hope if only to pick up some of the left-over pieces on the ground and offer them up to you with profound thanks in having shared them with me, when once they were whole, and I in my full powers.

Very sensual, classy, and intelligent.
It's almost like picturing a play in my head when reading this.
Great poem Jade, keep up the good work :)

Thank you so much, dear Ms, I'm moved by your embrace of this piece which had me feeling uplifted, taking me to where words would also allow readers to go. <3
