Seren Roberts Poet Lyric

Hummming a Tune - Lyric Contest

Snuggled cosily in a blanket of love
Eyes tightly shut, listening to above
Where the robin chirps his merry song
Guarding his garden from the throng
          I hummm a merry tune

Strings of violins pass through my mind
Mournfully and sad .....as if to remind
me of days of yore when love was great
How did that feeling turn to hate
           I hummm a soulful tune

Sun is setting here to shine elsewhere
Reminds me of how I still care
for life, for love ...it's music fills my soul
I close my eyes to slumber, to recall,
           hummming a sleepy tune

Caren Krutsinger March 11, 2018 at 3:29 AM I had to read this three times, because of the subtlety of the message. Well done! And how does love turn to hate? I have always wondered, but it seems to so many many times. Seren Roberts March 11, 2018 at 6:40 AM hello Caren thank you so much for commenting. to answer your question I don't know. Maybe hate is a too heavy word. but it rhymed.lol .. Seren
