An actor's perspective of the very last song of a musical performance.
One last note
Floats over faces
Frozen with awe
Under the spell.
It settles over them like a bird
With clear crystal wings
And hangs, breathless,
For a split moment.
The first sound breaks the spell,
The first hands awaken
And the faces melt
Springing sudden to life
As the note floats away
And the lights glare
On the glowing faces
Full of joy after
One
Last
Note.
