APPRECIATION, by FRANK DAYTON ERVIN STOWE First Line: Play o'er again the theme of melody Last Line: And make our recognition known. Alternate Author Name(s): Ervin, Dayton Subject(s): Music & Musicians | ||||||||
Play o'er again the theme of melody. Take me upon your wings of song. I sail away with beauty's armed support To where translucent grace prolong. Resplendent sounds the soul of violin And we are borne aloft, a thrill Expression, and a voice profusion here Of richest gift and rarest skill. Bespeaks this affluence as charmers sound With message rich, a priceless gift Wherewith appreciations swell the joy That others have for their uplift. Repeat the sounds resplendent here. Prolong The vision of your ardent tone. We share the meaning of your message now And make our recognition known. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LINER NOTES TO AN IMAGINARY PLAYLIST by TERRANCE HAYES VARIATIONS: 13 by CONRAD AIKEN BELIEVE, BELIEVE by BOB KAUFMAN ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT by BOB KAUFMAN MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES THE POWER OF MUSIC by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES THE MAN WITH THE HOE OUTWITTED by EDWIN MARKHAM |
