Currently Listening
Winter Child
By Matt Duke
see relatedTales
I once told tales
of magical moments
and wondrous souls
that were connected
and grew a harmony,
but then,
the violin strings snapped
and the reeds cracked
and the ivory keys chipped away.
The symphony stopped
and in the silence you heard
a shatter.

i like this poem a lot, i'm glad you liked my work as well :)
This is great. The imagery is evocative and powerful. I find it rare for poetry to create auditory imagery as well as this demonstrates.
Well done,
Skylar
