Ambrosia Rising
Ambrosia rising up from the piano keys
permeating the air as heaven oversees
music spreading sweetness in the vacuous air
with chordal progressions and elegance and flair
and a certain feeling that travels down the spine
a blessed journey as heaven and sound combine
a private pilgrimage from a chordal passage
a drifting away to the transcendental stage
a losing of the self in a sea of wonderment
of perplexity, bliss, amazement, and merriment
a tingling of the nerves of the fibers of the heart
an exhilarating ride into the light from the dark
a launching of the self into space and beyond
an infinite travel where love and music bond
a place unexplained to the common man
but a private pleasure since time began
as piano players find the right chords to play
and breathe the ambrosial air that comes to stay
that sends him into imaginary rose gardens
into floral fields of aromatic gems
and stays upon his lips like the sweetest wines
from the harmonies in the chords he finally finds
that sends him into space reserved for the few
the few that can taste the air that blew and blew
an ode to the player and the chords he found
for he shall evermore be heaven bound
an ode to the ambrosia rising, the sweetest sound
