BEAUTIFUL MUSIC<br />
You are a melody<br />
running through my mind.<br />
I cannot get myself to<br />
hum another tune.<br />
Your melody attracts<br />
my musical inclination like<br />
no other song I’ve heard.<br />
Though I have written<br />
down the notes to<br />
this lovely piece<br />
in my mind,<br />
over and over again,<br />
I am still a little apprehensive<br />
about playing it aloud.<br />
