Deep music comes In waves unending From this portrait By the Rembrandt of the lenses. The bright black notes Of the two deep eyes Leap to the forehead, And upon the score-lines, That time and character have drawn, Play music, that the haloed Hands have known. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LYNCHED by FRANK ANKENBRAND JR.
