MUSIC by HILDA CONKLING

First Line: IF I THINK MUSIC
Last Line: INTO CHANGE.
Subject(s): MUSIC & MUSICIANS;
IF I think music,
It comes and goes.
If the fountain ripples and splashes,
It keeps on singing.
Falling broken water
Sings and answers
When the warblers in the May trees
Stay close for a little.
But music that I hear
Is different in its meanings....
Happy hour or sorrowing
Into change.
