Open air concert - Kenwood
Ray Stebbing
Reflected in calm waters,
a glowing arch stretched
between towering trees -
like a rainbow, it promises
harmony. In the dusk,
voices and instruments blend
in a sound that lifts souls.
A passing jet grinds by
drowning the Ode to Joy.
Joy flows back into a shattered air.
Patient, the rain waits,
and when the last chord sounds,
and the applause fades, falls
gently, an unheeded blessing,
upon departing heads.
