R.I.P. Ennio Morricone (1928-2020)

Farewell to the one and only
Film composer Morricone
'Once upon a time in the West'
Epitomised his very best...

Good, Bad and Ugly – all sublime
Italian wizardry each time
His impassioned, lilting, haunting notes
Garnered 70 million votes!

Ennio's enigmatic scores
Always welcomed with applause
Instrumental magic on large screen
For forty years he reigned supreme.

His oeuvre is sadly now complete
His genius though, is hard to beat
He's vanished to another sphere
But imparts joy to all who hear!

(c) Poet in the woods 2020
