the gentle side...

The gentle side
Whispers
Trilling waves in the bay
Quiet songs quiet moon
The mermaid's hair Brandywine
The mermaid's name
Moon River
Oh!
John Coltrane
The gentle side
The Artist went to the breakwater in the moonlight
Where Moon River splashed & shivered a bit
& The Artist began to paint
In the lamplight & the moonlight
In snow colors
In flower in blue
Orange & pink
"Paint Moon River in the stars like a Matisse,"
The Artist heard the saxophone ringing.
Alabama
After The Rain
Oh!
John Coltrane
The gentle side
Drummer, tap him in
Piano player plink plink
"Paint Moon River in the stars like a Matisse!"
& The Artist did.
