Theme Song

Theme Song

A Poem by Iris Jayne
"

strambotto romagnuolo. haha. i had to copy paste that one, i keep forgetting it.

"

The sweet and melodious introductions start

Tentative voices meld and unite as one

It gathers strength with every beat of the heart

The rhythm renders all hesitation gone

Chorus, a blend of harmonies and kisses

Every note lights up a flame in the darkness

Their minds and hearts urging them not to falter

Keep it playing and rewinding forever

 

A bridge comes, rising different and unknown

The unsafe melody drawing fear and doubt

Sharps and flats weave ways through a wonderful tone

The voices deteriorate, the notes fallout

But as long as the beat keeps a steady flow

The song doesn’t stop; two souls just learn and grow

Till the end will be filled with church bells galore

And a thousand chances to sing it once more.

(:

I like it! It allows the reader to create an amazing picture in their head. I think of a Naruto scene. :D

Very nice! You're correct, the second verse is much stronger than the first, but a good job on both. Don't worry, I mysteriously always want pasta when ever I think too long on a Strambotto. Strambotto Siciliano, mmmmmm! LOL.

The Raven King has already stated the form corrections need so I won't repeat them. Overall, a very lovely ode to music that i really enjoyed.

Keep up the good work and thanks for participating in the Poetry in-FORM-ation Challenge.

You paint a pretty picture here with your diction and syntax. Very beautiful. There are some technical problems though. All lines have to be 11 syllables exactly and you have 12 syllables in lines 1, 3, and 6 in the first stanza and line 4 of the second stanza. An easy fix. Thanks for reviewing mine as well. :)
