Poem for the week: "The Alchemy of Music"

 

The Alchemy of Music


 I got another confirmation today

that life is an individual way

when I listened to “Horn of Plenty”

on CBC’s Ideas this morning,

a surprising insight into another

personal channel for the miraculous

when gifted saxophonist “Sweet Su”

Terry unwittingly revealed that she

was an initiate of the secret way

of life by way of her music, the

unseen path to one’s true self

that is awakened when one is

called to their destined purpose,

as is everyone whom life has made

ready for their final journey

to wholeness and completeness,

and I listened with rapt attention

to her articulation of the secret way

through the alchemy of music, smiling

to myself at a fellow companion’s

miraculous discovery.
