Moonlight Sonata
In moonlit grace, a sonata takes flight,
Notes dance gently through midnight air,
A symphony that fills the heart with light,
Whispers secrets through each tender stair.
The moon, a silent witness to this tale,
Casts its soft glow upon the ivory keys,
As melodies, like shooting stars, prevail,
And lead us to a world of harmonies.
In every chord, a longing can be heard,
A yearning for a love that's lost or found,
The music weaves a tapestry of words,
With moonlight, silence breaks profound.
Moonlight Sonata, keeper of the night,
Your haunting beauty fills souls with light.
