Psalm Sonnet 2: Music for My King

When I was younger, I suppose
It may be, that the "rippling brook"
Chorded with the music in me.
But anymore I like the sound

Of landscape waterfalls--because
It quiets the evil spirit
Of the Lord in me. Listen hard
Enough to inane chatter and

I can just-not hear my child scoff
As my ridiculous posture.
