The Cello
~Deana J. Tavares
Reverberating humming strum
Drawing in
The lonely one
Deeply wailing
Calls abound
Feet quickly lifted
Up
Off the ground
Unexplained
Melodies
Crying eyes
Swaying trees
Familiar sounds
Open doors
Something heard
In lives before
Glistening notes
Pulling near
A beautiful sadness
Not to fear
Tired strings
Plucking hearts
E minor echoed
Worlds apart
Bringing back a moment
Lost in time
This intrinsic journey
And it’s all mine
