You are my favorite composer, <br />The music you create in my heart makes me swoon. <br />Your music intensifies as you get closer. <br />Its crescendos make me jump over the moon. <br /> <br />Yes, Beethoven, Bach, Wagner and others' music is great, <br />Their music sends one on an inspirational journey. <br />Yet the greatest of their works fails to rate <br />As high on my chart as yours, as far as I see. <br /> <br />Your intricate melodies match the beating of my heart. <br />My pulse races along with your allegro tempo. <br />Your sweet bird-like sounds greet me as the day gets its start, <br />And gently sings me to sleep as to bed I go. <br /> <br />(7-20-2006)<br /><br />Greg Oosterhouse<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-favorite-composer/
