Symphony

all I hear is this song…

carried to my ears upon waves
as they ebb and return
a symphony of love
played on instruments
of the heart—

those harps that pull
me into the ocean
teach me

to ride the waves

they said to remember crawdads
asked me to listen for their song
when my heart was heavy
and my sorrow dark
