Stradivarius

For Vivian

Strength and Beauty
Quite Confidence
Adventurous, yet conservative
Gently curved for dramatic effect

To touch you is to touch the Almighty himself
Firm and strong - Smart and generous
You are like not other I have ever held
All others pale in comparison

Your youth shines through
You have been preserved
Bearing a natural kiss of the Sun
As only a few have

The finest of several woods
Help make you all that you are
Nothing was spared to create you
You are what craftsman & scholars, labored to produce

Where eloquences meets style and grace
Is where you are found
It only makes sense I found you in a grand concert hall
Nothing has been made like you in three hundred years

Some believe you belong in a Museum
A natural beauty such as your should be shared
Yours is a healing power
Producing a melody that tames even the savage beast
