A Minuet Of Mozart's

by Sara Teasdale

You may also enjoy reading the short story about Mozart by Kate Dickinson Sweetser titled Mozart: The Boy Musician

Across the dimly lighted room
The violin drew wefts of sound,
Airily they wove and wound
And glimmered gold against the gloom.

I watched the music turn to light,
But at the pausing of the bow,
The web was broken and the glow
Was drowned within the wave of night.
