In english, we had to write a poem using the first stanza of another poem. It also had to be about ourselves somehow. So, naturally, I chose to represent myself as a violinist. I know this technically isn't music talk, but I'd like to get a feel for how accurate my descriptions are, from other violinists.

Have you ever seen
Anything
-------------- arrow (First stanza from another poem)
More beautiful

Than a violinist?
So stately
in love,
so graceful and radiant.

Matching the waves of the music,
Breathing,
Sighing,
Losing yourself in your life

and your love.
And have you ever felt
the fire building,
the golden

happiness swelling through,
until you want to leap
to your feet
and play

through your heart.
Play until your
Joy is exhausted,
your sadness assuaged.

And you smile,
and you weep,
and the applause echos
in your ears.

Then exhausted,
bt deeply joyful,
you put your heart away in its case
until tomorrow.

Heh... I'm a terrible poet most of the time. Thanks, though!

Again, thanks everyone! heart

OMG. That is exactly how I feel about the violin and playing. I feel that the violin is my heart. When I hear violin or strings instruments playing, I feel that it comes from my heart. Has anyone ever seen the movie "Music of the Heart"? It is a wonderful movie about a violin teacher and a program that she started. The budget did not provide for the program so it was going to be cut. Well, she came up with a way to save it. And, it is based on a true story. Purely wonderful. It is a must-see movie especially for violinists. It made me cry, too. But it makes you laugh as well.

I think my teacher has started to show us that movie once or twice... we never finished it though. Is it about a kid who randomly runs away from his family, a bad kid who goes to that violin school because he wants to learn music? And Heifitz is involved somehow, and a Stradivarious? I dunno if I'm thinking of the same movie, though.
