King


The KING steps down from his throne

For the one

 Only

And last time

It was

Beautiful

                  TIME even stopped to stare

                       The SUN awoke to watch

                           The FLOWERS took notice ,bloomed

                                                                     The BIRDS took notice and stopped singing

                                                                              As if to listen to a secret

                                                                         That was not meant for their ears

                                                                        

                                                    The CLOUDS and the SUN worked together- as ONE 

                                   To create their finest

                                                     most colorful piece

                                                that they had ever created

it was composed of brilliant REDS and PURPLES

                                                              and colors only seen for this occasion

                                              were introduced to the world below

all

 for US

                  PIANOS and VIOLINS  

                             With noone to play them

Started playing

It was a primal instinct inside them that told them to

                                                  The instinct brought them back to their beginning

              and reminded them

                                         Why music was created: For moments like this

 

They created a wondrous MELODYS

                                                                    Creating harmonious SOUNDS never heard

or thought of

by HUMANS

The instinct was infectious, reviving even the most basic of instruments

DRUMS
HORNS
WHISITLES

                                           PLAY in harmony and rhythms

                                                                                                  that haven’t been heard in millennia

because no other occasion

has been so appropriate 

No one notices

Only the people that the concert is intended for

 

                                                                               The EARTH and the MOON

                                                                    Danced

                                                                       For the first time

                                                                                              That was appropriate

                                                                 They glided,

                                                                               twirled gracefully across space

                                                                                         dancing lightly

                                                                                                to the music of the heavenly bodies

                                                                           doing similarly

 

                                                                            they danced as if they could

                                                                                           rearrange the stars

 

                                                              the divine couple was determined to

                                                                                 all for HIM

                                            

                                                           The KING stepped down from his throne
