I am invited to this celebration of joy
My life is complete.
My eyes feast in this museum of beauty
My ears immerse in the depths of its music.
 
You have assigned me a small task
for this grand evening –
I play the flute.
I weave weeping and laughter
of myriad hearts 
into sweet lyric.
 
Is it time yet?
Can I come see you?
Play for you my humble tribute…
