Eurovision Highlights

In the lovely Dublin theater where dreams are fulfilled excited spectators hushed In the silence of the night with avid expectancy, Bucks Fizz entered the stage his music is a hidden gem  waiting to be performed In a lovely breeze a mellow silk thread was spun akin to the moon's silky glow I have hopeful dreams. In the song 'Making Your Mind Up,'  they sang with clear voices the audience leaned in ready to hear words have hidden meanings with significant implications.  a galaxy of splendor It's unlike ordinary life. and are held captive within its seductive embrace. With voices that soar they danced and whirled with every movement a lovely expression displayed skirts swung In utopian harmony A glimpse into the future they were whirling every rotation brought free flowers a touch of cosmic charm a trail of delicate silver threads from sparkling strands Into the waiting hands below voices burst with delight they showed me their weary souls while others can't consume allow yourself to cry whether from pure joy evolved from a deep well of sadness. weary spirits found rest from exhaustion after a while amid Eurovision magical lure time stood still the brine singer gaze large and tender someone uttered a song that aimed to unify hearts and whisk spirits away from here! "This song was crafted for you, my beloved,"  she sang with a sense of urgency then it accelerated It's as graceful as a waltz under the dancing stars. twisting and falling from skies above, to earth beneath  bystanders were enthralled they left me behind, lost in a daze, their devastated feelings the beat captures my attention.  Where the tides of time glide as the final note reached the air, they were aware of this peculiar world Under the stars Bucks Fizz was presented beyond just their vocals, they weaved their magical gifts similar to fabric producers creating something fascinating Their skirts pointed outward  akin to arrows To faraway places Where love and aspirations exist Let us reflect on the Dublin scene Where music meets magic  We have always danced together During ephemeral times of skepticism Let us revive the ageless ritual Where skirts swirl.

SP, I know nothing of Bucks Fizz until now, and I see they performed the song in 1981. There is an interesting video of the group performing that song, which you might consider embedding. The lyrics and presentation were enthralling. The concept of making your mind up is deep. They were light hearted about it and quite funny. The routine with the skirts was a classic for the time.

Great take on the contest. Your poem is a beautifully crafted tribute to the magic of live performance, capturing the transformative power of music and dance. Through rich, evocative imagery and a fluid, free verse structure, it transports the reader to a Dublin theatre where dreams are fulfilled, emotions are stirred, and the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. The poem celebrates the timeless allure of performance, the enduring power of dreams, and the deep emotional connections forged through art.

Ah dr sotto seems like you enjoy eurovision. And youv written a very poetic take on this theme, with descriptive lines so well articulate and free flowing with excellent metaphors and alliterations. I love the lines “ weary spirits found rest from exhaustion after a while amid Eurovision magical lure” the hype can be felt through those words! “here music meets magic We have always danced together During ephemeral times of skepticism Let us revive the ageless ritual Where skirts swirl.” Beautiful ending. Best wishes for the contest
