Unstruck

Unstruck

 

hark,

listen to the silence

that sits

between two notes

calling

   an unbrushed string ..

within

   itself, a masterpiece ..

indeed,

   a sublime symphony ..

unstruck

yet held somewhere

deep

  within an inner ear ..

savoured

and shared between

the

 mechanisms of touch,

feeling

   and understanding ..

not

heard as such but duly

  noted,

regardless of whether

picked,

   plucked or strummed ..

harken

hard and practice long

listen to

the heartbeat hid deep

within

this most sacred of long

 lost

   unstruck and holy chords ..

Damn. Most definitely one of your finest among fine poems.
I'm trying to think of something smart and eloquent to say but I can't.
It just gives the feels. Like something special and magical lies dormant waiting for its moment to rock your existence.

Wow. This is so soulful. The voice of my poetic heartbeat. Untouched. So much untouched, but felt. Beautiful Neville.
