"You Won't Hear My Song Tonight" by Max PhineasYou scoff at the notion of horse-carried princes
In hope of a peasant with eyes of a king
blessed with a velvety voice that convinces-
in tones soft and pleasant-
the rise of the Spring.
Your bass clef barstool
Spins you into soft oblivion
And I, in my homespun heart
Will watch from afar
And sing into the dark. 02/24/2009 Posted on 02/25/2009 Copyright © 2024 Max Phineas
