One place understood helps us understand all places better.

Concerto's end


The birds 
on branches

A glimpse
one catches

But when music
begins

Then one
listens

A concert
selection

Of serious
fugues

And rondos
abound

As couplets
digress

Until ritornello
half-rhymes

But then darkness
begins

And concertos
end.
