AS I SIT HERE IN MY LATE PARENTS OLD HOME
QUIETLY SAD AND SERENE AND ALONE
THAT I NOW OWN
WITH BEAUTIFUL ANTIQUES AROUND ME
AND LISTEN TO BETOVENS MOONLIGHT SONATA
WHICH IS VERY SOFT AND WONDERFUL
IT FITS THE MOOD OF THIS DAY THATS BEEN DRURY
I LOOK OUT TO SEE A FEW PEOPLE SCURY
TO GET HOME BEFORE DARK
THE MOON SHONES THROUGH THE TREES
AS THE BRANCHES BLOW EVER SO SOFTLY
IN THE BREEZE
AND CAST THEIR LONG SHADOWS ON THE GROUND
I WONDER WHAT BETOVEN WAS SEEING
AND THINKING
WHEN HE WROTE THE BEAUTIFUL SONATA
MAYBE THE END OF HIS LIFE IN THE FUTURE
OR THE LOSS OF A GREAT LOVED ONE
WHAT WAS ON HIS MIND
THE SONATA MAKES YOU WANDER BACK IN TIME

I'm glad that Beethoven's work moved you in such a way.
I suppose it's a testament to the fact that some things never date, they are timeless.

The feeling and sensitivity expressed in this beautiful piece of music may well have been written with a sense of loss, Beethoven was a genius and it's great that his music continues to touch people's lives in such a soothing way when they need it to, lovely to read such a heartfelt piece of writing bringing a reminder of the importance of the right piece of music at the right time. |
