Songs Poem by RIC BASTASA

i agree songs strike deeper
in our inner cores each note
striking a chord right at the
center of our hearts, the lyrics
spellbinding and the images
create a world of each own
so different from where we
are sitting: your songs have
spoken well and i think i am
beginning to understand
more: we have become a
scale lesser than immortals
but a scale higher than
ordinary mortals, midway
between feelings and dreams
just a note higher than reality.
