Composer
by Patricia Paz Moya
The music plays the sonnet's array
Of melodious words
The construction of sound and its display
Heavenly when heard
The resonance of each vibration
Its creation lingers in the mind
The components...formed in the imagination
Original in all sense...a composition of one kind
Life's notes
A measure of failure and success
A representation of individual hope
The opus we endure through diligence and practice
Composers...the symphony we conceive
The performance reflected by the audience's applause
Careful notation of others' music we give as well as receive
Appreciation of music understanding each individuals' cause
Duplication at times we attempt to achieve
We borrow, lend, become owners of diverse musical blends
Originality diminishes when lyrical tonality we thieve
Yet, throughout our lives we compose the music that never ends.
