Love Song for a Harper

oOo

I played a symphony of bliss

A theme designed upon one tender kiss

I played in a minor key

Because your music cannot be a part of me

oOo

I played a melody of joy

The sharps and flats of life may yet destroy

The harmony I play

Because I love too well to run away

oOo

I played a carillon of zest

Arpeggios of joy that take no rest

Allegro ma non troppo it must be

For if I go too fast I will surely lose the key

oOo

I played a harmony of awe

Each counterpoint to chase the theme and soar

Complex my fugal heart

The end of every song is but the start

oOo

I played a serenade of love

The notes I play soar to the sky above

The music that you hear

May yet enchant your heart, entrance your ear
