Sur Le Metro The delicate curve Of her neck Echoes her violin An errant lock Of darkest hair Entrances Her faraway eyes Are lost somewhere I yearn to see I am lost Within her Music I am lost Within her Elegance I am lost Within her Merlin Copyright Gordon A. MacIntyre 2008

Merci, Rhumour! Thanks, Kayano. This was a lady busker who enthralled me on the metro to Champs des Mars station in Paris. When she was playing, it was like nothing else existed for her. From your comment I gather you play violin? Must be amazing to drift away like that... Thanks, Jen. It was a slightly surreal moment. (Not too many violinists to be found on the underground in my neck of the woods!) Merlin |

I too thought this was beautiful Merlin, this created such an evocative picture to me, I felt I could see her through your eyes. You've reminded me of a poem I wrote some time back called the Métro which I may post again, I hope you won't think that presumptious - just your poem recalled it to my mind Emma x |

Thanks, Ken. The subject certainly pushed mine, so I had to try and capture the moment. I'm pleased you liked this. Comments like that make sharing poems worthwhile, Emma. I take that as a real compliment, so thank you. And it's certainly not at all presumptious! I often find that another poet's words prompt either a new pen or bring an existing one to mind. The whole is greater than the sum. I see that you have posted yours already, but I shall keep it is a read for tomorrow as I'm about to turn into a pumpkin! Merlin |
