Analysis of Sonata amoroso



Violins play spicatto
Upon my tender mercies
As strings with conspiracy
Rising up, upon the bow

Bleeding hearts traverse
In memories off in distance
The haunting melodies
Ebb and flow

Waves symphony washing
My conscience purifying
While harps with benevolence pleading…
Echo dreams from long ago

And arrows of adaigetto fling off
Chills unto my ears "en masse"
I can't help, but surrender
To depths, of my very soul!

And I weep…
Lulled into a web
Of passions, acceso
And its deepest throes

As fermatta strangles out
my whispered breath
And an espirando carries...
with it, a renaissance
That edifies the whole

The vapor tears aloft
Unto ovations grandiso
And my heart skips
Beating out its own applause
So moving was the masterpiece
Of sonata amoroso

Nighttiger

A fortyish native born all American man. Married twice and for the last time. I have four children; Three daughters and one son that are all over the age of eighteen. I also have two grandchildren; one three years old and one nine months old. Inspired by God, tragedy, life's experiences and then a fairy tale love. I never intentionally set out to write poetry, but "She" inspired me. "She" meaning the love of my life. That love is a passion that after thirteen years still grows stronger each and every day. It eventually had to be put into writing. As I wrote poetry to her, she encouraged me to approach other subjects. Doing so brought me to discover that poetry could wash away the bitter tastes of life (suicide, cancer, and divorce) that were still living like demons inside me. So when poetic therapy brought those impish fiends to a stalemate, I began to experiment more. Creating fictional characters and situations within my works. The support of this online community has inspired me even further to continue to hone my writing skills giving the readers the best that I can offer. Thanks to all you out there in Lulu land. more…
