Hey Michael,
yeah, same as usual, always behind the eight-ball and playing the catch up game, so sorry if I come to your party when it's nearly over.

This poem is really beautiful my Brother... the first verse starts off a very sweet magic lingering haunt... and all with your trade mark of the mastery of word combination that leaves images of floating on a cloud in ones mind, just admiring... and yes, even the way you tickled your first verse to be your last... yeah, a truly magic ride into your majestic mind and thoughts... and as always, picture perfect reflections.

With our thoughts we create,
the freedom of flight,
James vx's.

Beautiful poem and song to go with it. Especially beautiful if both played and
read at the same time. You write soulful poetry.

This poem is the epitome of beauty, Michael!

"when she dreams...
ivory tickled keys serenity's prayer
melodies unlocked dance mid-air"--wow!

I love how the ending echoes the beginning of this lyrical, ethereal write. The resonance of melodic voices surrounds us, reflecting the gracefulness of nature's purest sounds.

Hugs

Amanda

Such a delightful write to your muse, Michael. It's soft and tender and all the nice things, These three lines brings tears to my eyes: "fairytale beautiful sets Cinderella free /glass slipper rescued instantaneous/magic...with the toss of her hair."

This is beautifully romantic. I love the accidental rhymes throughtnout and the meter adds to the enchantment. The imagery you create is magical. You do an excellent job of bringing the verse full circle by repeating the first stanza and dropping the first line to be the closing. It certainly has a fairy tale quality to it. Fairy dust is certain to sparkle at any moment.

This is a truly magical and imaginative poem, filled with phrases that move the reader to think gentle thoughts of tender, dreamy moments. Your carefully arranged rhymes and repeated stanzas add a whimsical beauty to the poem and reinforce the delicate mood. I loved how the last three lines were the same as the first three except rearranged. You do have a way with words, and this is a truly delightful poem. I'm moved by it, and incredibly glad that you are writing again! Keep 'em coming Michael.

Thank you for sharing your tribute to a real artist. I admired your echoing "-air" sounds and "w's" plus the "prayer" of the "tickled keys" and the "hush that captures poetry's peace". I'm glad to see you're back in true form. Big hugs- Joan

Hi, Mike. I'm listening to your lovely song as I write these words. To think that of another gives one a feeling a feathered beds and satins.
