This Day in Celebration

Noble be our labors

The gift of toil

The I to Place

Heed I the many calls to awakening
The distant visions held newly clear
The focus in light newly defined
The pulsing heart in spirit known
The inner sounding of love divine
The calls, the calls, in silence's splendor
To these my will, my will surrender
Deep within this moment's grace
All TIME, all PRESENCE, within SELF, the I to place.

HARMONY

This day the light in harmony I see

My heart beckons a soulful plea

Hear I  the pulsing,  and known be my heart

From this embracing moment I shan't depart
In silent knowing,  faith's blessings be mine

In this presence is defined the markings of all time

Ceaseless and endless be this moment's splendor

When to harmony my will,  I lovingly surrender.

The harpist chants laudation of the Pharaoh before the god Shu,

symbolizing the space between Heaven and Earth, 

who wears an ostrich feather headdress and holds a scepter Was, 

symbolizing the power and domination, and the sign of life – The Key Ankh.

Tomb of Pharaoh Ramesses III, XX Dynasty, 1185-1070 BC, The Valley of the Kings, Western Thebes.

Keys and Strings

Keys and strings
The splendor of sound
Heart and spirit ever to resound
Blessed be the muse, the music sublime
Creation's call known in sounding divine
Heard be the winds and the rolling waves of sea
Tender the touch, deep passion in mounting plea
Bloom and petals alight in frivolity play
To the awakened reverie I do pray
Lilting sentiments resonant and real
The muse, the music, the soul to reveal.

▶ Glenn Gould - 44. Beethoven, Sonata For Piano Cello No.3, Op.69 [ 1975 ] - YouTube ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUpBCO4TYfM

"From the glow of enthusiasm I let the melody escape.
I pursue it. Breathless I catch up with it. It flies again,
I seize it. I embrace it with delight. 

I multiply it then by modulations, 

and at last I triumph in the first theme. 
There is the whole symphony." 

~~Beethoven's poetic quote

Of a Summer Night

Of a Summer Night

entrancing be this rhythmic sounding
the night in its captivating calls
crickets in mystical orchestration
the air still and alluringly warm
seductive be this darkened vista
bewitching light of the brilliant moon
corona of jeweled tones luminous
this the rapture of a summer night.
