I hear the music
- so much more than many think
a depth greater than unending skies
as close as a rainbow
passes through falling stars
speaking to hearts and souls
in gentle symmetry
drawing and being led
to the where's of dreams
and the dream's shared lives.

I heard the music
and its echo still sounds
so softly inside
all my days
and all my ends
so quietly cry
from the beauty I touched
so briefly.

I don't dream of flying
for I fly every day
with each taken breath
I reach and touch
all the stars
and all the dreams
that ever are
and learn more than I knew
each moment before.

I make the music
that tomorrows will hear
and the echoes will sound
along the paths being made
and through it all
I became who I am...
the me that looks back
from both sides
of the soft glass
that is time.

Wonderful closing stanza!

Well set up by those preceding!

The statement:

"I make the music

that tomorrows will hear"

is particularly strong,

and the tag phrase:

:the soft glass

that is time."

Makes me want to steal that thought,

and write it sixteen different ways!

Well done, and thank you!
