do you know that every minute of every day somewhere on this globe mozart is playing I sometimes grieve the music lost by his not doubling his thirty-five years better to banish regret be grateful he started young give a magic flute to the small grandkids laugh while they duet pa-pa-pa-pa-pa and argue whether the birdcatcher’s name is soft or hard g know that a little night music is now an arpeggio of star music glorifying the celestial harmony of the spheres
