Beyond the Dam: 25

The Harp

*******

The flowing fingers of Mind sweep across

The strings, zipping the Spirit’s songs serene.

I feel like Saul when David played; but toss

The javelin?  Can music make me clean?

.

Can envy override the harmony

Of Soul’s meek message music blends in heart?

If truly blended, lost is jealousy;

Its nothingness departs without a smart.

.

The plucking rapture, Saul then never felt.

The music’s healing bursts from Love’s pure hands.

It lives in self-awareness where hearts have knelt

In humble prayer, where Spirit reprimands.

.

In harmony, the heart and harp are one—

A music played from Soul’s evolving run.
