Record keeper

 "Exhilarated, I listen to a fleeting moment, 
getting a glimpse into its magical world.
A record keeper of all time.

"Its gracefulness brings me peace.

"Limited by my senses, merely scratching a surface, I imagine a sonic sphere, the transformative vessel.

"Pulses carrying the pattern.
I dive into the unknown, creating a response to its call."
