Cadence

"the faint melody of her heart, whispers the soft cadence of her soul."      ~ Kristy Waltan


There's a rhythm to my words, 
A cadence to my thoughts, 
Like the song of the birds, 
Music connects all dots, 

There's a flow to my verse, 
A tempo to my song, 
Like musings that traverse
this world in a beat strong, 

There's a lilt to my voice, 
An accent as I speak, 
Like a stranger has choice
'tween metre and mystique, 

There's an inflection here, 
An intonation sweet, 
Like a melody clear, 
A canticle complete.

Victor Buhagiar February 3, 2023 at 9:18 AM Not easy to use cadence in a poem but you did it perfectly. I wrote three poems with the letter C: contemplation, cadence and cemetery and I still am at loss for which one is the best. You will outdo me with yours.
