Violin in the Passage

Statues engraved – into the rooftops

Stand still engrossed in the solo

Walls pass the echo of strings like yarn tails

Stone comes quivering – to life

    And the violinist sways to his emotion

    His hands tremble

          much as the strings he flies

 

People walk wondering along the Strasse

Their thoughts are strung to vibrato

          much as mine are – we listen  

They walk slower to hear the moment

These stirrings come softly

          come rarely 

The time for the melody will change

But for now…

 

                                        violin
