The Melodic Treasure Hunt

My strings
fine-tuning
with patience
when struck 
with the pick of insight
learn and sing the melodies
that you have arranged
and hidden notes of
in everyone and 
everywhere.

‘Fine-tune me with patience’ — a phrase from the song ‘ Novels of Acquaintance’ by Rising Appalachia who give me music to bathe my soul in. I include it here in this poem as a reverential bow to their artistry and also because it just cannot be said any better.
