Frances Steerling Poem: Dazzled And Delighted By Dvorak

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Between the wind and the strings

the pulse pounds

percussively

But

you cannot count

the points

between

the point and the counterpoint

The

distance

does diminish

as your eyes

dance across

the landscape

Then

:::

beyond

the counterpoint

finessing through

the final movement

your ears

count

≈ one hundred twenty ≈

and

there it is:

the birthplace

Norwegian Wood

Antonin Dvorak composed his 7th Symphony

in 1884.

In 1965,

Lennon/McCartney composed

Norwegian Wood.

Thus,

Frances Steerling said

"Dvorak is the GodFather of the Beatles."

According to
The Institute of Inane Research,
three Beatles wanted Antonin Dvorak
on the Sgt. Peppers album cover
but Paul McCartney
vetoed the idea

The only people who read
Dazzled and Delighted by Dvorak
were required by the poet
to read it aloud
