Fiddler's Art (haiku)

Right hand, the artist
Paints a tapestry of sound
With bow hair on string.

Left hand, the worker,
Colors the given bow-tone
With string-wise fingers.

Dancing vibrations
Whisper through bridge and sound-post
Voicing the fiddler's art.

Echoes from the souls
Of departed composers
Paint the canvas-air.
