Notes About The Poem

Contest: Hymn Of The Heart - Sponsor: Hiya Sharma - Date: 17th July 2026

Hymn Of The Heart

In the deepest realms of my soul I sing
Some ballads, some parodies - how I feel.
The subjects can be about anything.
The most important factor is it's real.

My heart sings "the chorus a poet bleeds"
It's in the nature of a poetess.
This melody meets our innermost needs,
The effects of this, my heart wants to stress.

For one time "I kissed an opera octave"
And it played to the tune of poetry.
I'll dance to this song til I meet the grave,
As it's who I am and it's part of me.

The bells of the soul gloriously ring!
The Hymn Of The Heart I joyfully sing!

Enjoyed your creative sonnet! Especially, “ For one time "I kissed an opera octave" And it played to the tune of poetry. I'll dance to this song til I meet the grave, As it's who I am and it's part of me.” Best wishes in the contest!
