It Is Magic After All
/Listening to Bella Voce Women's Chorus of Vermont warm up for a concert.
————
It is magic after all
Noise no longer noise
Sound unrendered by ears
It is magic, this stuff
This essential, stirring,
upsetting, poignant,
thrilling, arousing,
quieting, lingering stuff
Filtered by the soul and heart
and mind and body
Speaking to any or all –
crying, laughing, longing
and longing some more –
longing for the magic
Something even I might conjure
A Magi, I, when music
is my language,
the vessel of my hopes and dreams,
the wind that blows as gale or breeze
my songs to you
