What Paderewski Taught Me about Being

paderewski

 


good
he tells me
for what has been taken
the heart moves
for what is left
for what has been given
moves like the ocean
sometimes a mountain
a nation for what is right
constantly in greeting
the dearly loved
what he always wanted
his words
my pulse the same
from the edge
surprises of her seat
a woman leans forward
tremble
hold back
holds
rush forward
a breath
time waits
washed always
in silence
the woman breathes out
silence for what is not
whish of wind
essence of man
dark and light
rublato of being
becomes being again
