The title threw me at first, but after reading and clicking play, I did as the words suggested. I closed my eyes and listened with new ones. Well done.

Comment from seaglass
This is a lovely video and the song is most beautiful. I love the soothing effect it has. However, I'm confused as the post is listed as Free Style. I see no poem so is my page missing something?

Yes, there's supposed to be a poem embeded into a picture. I'll try and add it here and see if it goes through to you. Someone else said the same thing, but most people see it okay. :))
Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very nicely penned poem over a romantic photo with lovely music.
-Interesting style that doesn't require a lot of words to express your feelings.
-The message I get is: understand me, listen, as
"you are all around me
free to be."
-You are everything to me, "but only if you hear me."
-A love as profound as this "is rare."

Comment from rspoet
A sense poem
that makes sense
musical notes sounding softly
as fingertips lightly touch keys
to locked doors and hidden desires
a pianist speaking through music
a poet speaking through words
with the exotic wonder of the African wind
for it is rare, indeed
Reminds me a bit of a poem I posted not long age, A Tale of Almost
One speaking through light, the other through sound
both touching essence
softly
Had I but six African breezes
they would be yours
But five African stars is all that's left
Twill have to do

I really like the way you

wind. Well done. No nits. Lora
