Nightingale

She sings like a nightingale
Her voice soaring
the audience enraptured
Silent
Unmoving
as her notes ring out
rhapsodic

  a dreamworld

of musical beauty
her voice unique
in its purity

unmatched
by any other

she loses herself in the moment
unaware
alone on the stage

her notes pitch perfect
bring a  tear to the eye
and free the soul
