Nightengale Sonata

"Nightengale Sonata" lonely nightengale sings with delight at night through misty shadows, melody is drifting a minstrel chant creates a soul-searching insight in darkness, this siren gently chirping. a lovely taleof beauty streams fathomless twittering fragility so breathless. hovering beneath sequined stars voicing wail sweet mystery of evening hosts nightengale. *For Joann Grisetti's Copy Cat Contest *Written by:Linda-Marie The "Sweetheart" of P.S. *Inspired by:Constance LaFrance's "nightengale" in Rhyme *My rewrite is using Rispetto form.
