Music of Madness
Hypnotic sounds
calling in silver
from sitar strings
Following though
forests of jade jewels
Arms stretched wide
clutching as rainbows
slip through hands
Crimson-pink quavers
trail from fingertips
Words of grey
float on clouds
scratched into
purple sky
The rusty refuge
sunken deep
into monotone
memories
as a finale of
spinning cymbals
of gold crash land on
symphony’s saffron strands

Grace is hosting D'Verse Poets tonight
and has prompted us with part two of
Synesthesia.
Today we will incorporate music in our poem
from the perspectiveof a synesthete.
Create your own Symphony.
Infuse your musical experience when listening
to a band, artist or musical genre, with colors,
sounds & textures.
Write a song filled with colors.
I was inspired by "Tomorrow Never Knows"
by the Beatles from their Revolver album.
It is 'trippy' and easy to conjure up
colors and movement.
