Concerto De’ Amor Poem by Thomas King

Those three little words
Were spoken softly into my ear
But as they entered my head
They sounded like a symphony.

Every word, every syllable
Every letter a beautiful combination
Of intricate pleasing tones
Causing my heart
to beat to its rhythm.

Melodic vibrations
Traveled throughout my body
As a crescendo of joyous emotions
Began to build within my being
Finally giving way
To a harmonious cantata

Those three little words
A symphonic poem
Meant only for my ears
An orchestration of perfection
That now plays
Only for me
