Clair De Lune

Inspired by Claude Achille Debussy
.
The most beautiful musical composition, is the incomparable “Clair De Lune”;
Composed by Claude Achille Debussy, about the clarity of the moon!
It’s melody is so ethereal, it brings teardrops to my eyes;
To me, this unparalleled masterpiece, is our music’s greatest prize!
.
I listen to each enchanting note, as they echo in my soul;
They take me back so many years, as my life begins unfold!
I think about the mistakes I made, my heart heavy with despair;
I remember those I loved so dear, but no longer are they there!
.
I drift upwards towards the Heavens, and touch some distant stars;
I hear voices from them calling me, Blessed Angels from afar!
They tell me they are waiting, at the Gates of Paradise;
And that some day in the future, to there I’ll also rise!
.
As it comes to its crescendo, my journey comes to end;
It has brought to me some closure, and my soul some needed mend!
I say “Thank you Master Debussy, for this gift to all Mankind”;
“I’m sure if I get to Heaven, you too there will I find”!
.
                      Fly me to the moon
                Take me to the distant stars
                      Enrapture my soul
