Dr Joy Philippou MBE in ‘Meditation Poems’ brings zest and a love of life to a modern way of quiet reflection, resolving what might seem this paradox in a way that is uniquely hers.
POEM

Inner Music

Razor sharp resonance on tympanic membrane
Suspended in timeless essence.
The tactile impact of oscillating notes reveals Reality.
My soul leaks through the cracks of auditory patterns
And every sound is drunk as nectar
Seen as music,
Heard as colour;
In synesthetic rapture,
Even roaring trucks turn to symphonic variations!
Ineffable Sound !
Would that you were communicable
Or
Repeatable at will
