I like to write with certain music pieces sounding in the background.
Yesterday, I wrote this while listening to some of Beethoven's music.
For each set of four lines, I provide the range of the recording time.
If one listens to the music and slowly reads the words (in some cases, a syllable
corresponding to a single note, and a few stretching of words to fit a note), you might
sense what I was feeling as I wrote.
(Yundi performing Beethoven’s Adagio Cantabile)
(0:00 - 0:33)
Hope seemed far,
but beauty broke the bonds,
disbursed darkest dreading,
sealed solace to the soul.
(0:35 - 1:10)
Jesu sent
an innocence to indwell.
Joy's zeal rid the pining,
Spirit-peace, the emptiness.
