Disclaimer

This blog ran for more than two years with no graphics--and it received about 50 page views. I was advised to add graphics; after seeing the huge public that followed blogs dedicated to homoerotic images, I decided to use that kind. The result was a dramatically increased number of monthly page views, and the number has remained fairly steady. Most of the images were found on the internet; although they are assumed to be in the public domain, they are identified as far as possible. They are exhibited under the “Fair Use” protections of United States copyright law: their function is simply to attract readers to the poems--I receive no economic benefit from them or from the blog. Nevertheless, they will be removed if they are copyrighted and the owner so desires. 1260 x 290

TO THE MUSIC OF MOZART

 

Symphony No. 27 in G, K. 199: Second Movement, Andante

 

Smiling, three women come into the salon,

Three young women under the high ceiling.

 

They curtsey together and, turning and circling,

Smoothly they move to invisible music,

 

While all around them the mute world is sleeping,

Feeling the hush of the late afternoon.

 

Softly the strings sound—and clarinet and flute,

Two shafts of bright daylight in a shadowy room.
