Symphony

I attended the symphony last night
I understand why this is such a pleasure
Even during the pieces I did not relish
I was relaxed, soothed and coddled by the music
For the pieces I did relish
I was mezmerized by these fifty people working in unison and individually
I was transported to another place by the power of the music
Held aloft by invisible water while I floated on the crescendo of music
Lifted and engaged at the level of my soul
