In the relentless rush
of the world,
I find my rhapsodic retreat,
slipping into headphones,
a musical melody so sweet,
symphony & cadence cocooned,
a sanctuary to keep,
from the chaos outside,
into music's heartbeat.
Headphones hush
like a lost lover's soft tender touch,
harmonious kinship,
I cherish so much,
notes like raindrops on glass,
gently they patter,
transporting my soul
to realms beyond life’s clatter.
Strings pluck & hum,
a tender embrace,
memories rise,
each note finds its place,
crescendo of emotions,
waterfall of grace,
realm of mystical melodies,
my spirit finds serene space.
Eyes closed,
I'm a dashing dancer in a silent ballet,
guided by redolent rhythms,
I softly sway,
moonlit sonata, an astral display,
in the world of sound,
I find my own way.
Beats sync & pulse,
like a heart's hidden song,
language unspoken,
yet it speaks so strong,
through staccatos & trills,
I journey along,
world of pure sound,
where I truly belong.
So let the earth roar,
with its chaos & din,
I'll be lost in the music,
immersed deep within,
headphones as vessels,
my heart will begin,
to dance & dream,
as melodies spin.

Brought to mind Van Morrison's magical Moondance. He was born just around the corner from where I live
