Analysis of SYMPHONY'S NIGHT VOICES

NANCY LL 1975 (Pasedena Texas as)



If you listen carefully      

You can hear Mother Nature descant    

It's a sound so naturally      

"Alluring and Puissant."    

Every living thing has a vocal of its own    

A bird tweets "yet" hear the running streams     

A place they call home    

Around Trees that are Queens...     

Winds and rain invite others to attend    

Enjoying the event    

In a moment all is regarded as a friend    

After it calms an orchestra is sent     

Now ready to begin...    

Crickets play their violin    

The beauty in the sound    

But then toads croak in    

"Wow just look around!"    

Wolves sneak upon to hear their howls    

as the moon shines bright    

Present now are mesmerizing white owls    

"Just how Gala is this Night?"    

Spiders don't stay behind    

as they weave their webs     

To rhythm as the raindrops skim its lines    

Echoes that reach even mountainscapes    

Suddenly all is silent at the same term    

And in seconds, drums are then heard    

"Why is it a woodpecker?"    

"Rocking like a real drummer?"    

Well rock on redhead fella    

Maybe you'll be talented to play the mbira    

"EVERYONE LOOK ARRIBA!"    

This is so fascinating and entertaining    

The chanting of wildlife     

There's nothing that needs explaining    

Other than to know it's all perfect and nice    

If you listen prudently to its true hidden heart    

You'll hear the sound of a sacred gold harp    

The one gift that gives it "God's Hand Art".    

"Blessing it all right from Genesis start."
