A Blue Violin by Mike Williams 08/28/2016 @ 3:07 A.M.

A blue violin plays,
Under the fullest moon,
As dancing shadows sway,
It murmurs a sad tune.

I hear a heart breaking,
And crickets softly croon,
The sonorous low sound,
A cantilena's swoon.

Oh! The timbre and wind,
There it is once again,
With the strings of my soul,
Plays a blue violin.
