Life is a Song Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Ink Empress 

 

Imagine life without music and song Keeping one’s heart gleeful all the day long A song that inspires your spirit to soar That is sung in your heart for evermore. I love the aria that’s sung within Creeps into your soul and beneath the skin A song reminds one of a time or place The bliss of a kiss or loving embrace. Songs that cram your soul with deep emotion When sung to sounds of the mighty ocean Or when out walking down a country lane With birds singing a sweet birdie refrain. Musical and poetically fine I am mesmerised by the song divine Of the orchestra that plays upon earth Spectacular, splendorous and superb. Life is a song that’s sung to one’s ending Until with angels we are ascending A billion songs later and here I am At rest with the Beatific Music Man.

Life is a song, could be a lamentation or a love song.

This is so beautiful and your rhymes are truly captivating dear Belle, i just love how you started it too and how it flows in a seamless manner with wordplay that goes so well with the theme. “ A song reminds one of a time or place The bliss of a kiss or loving embrace” couldnt have said it any better, so true and i think many can resonate too with those lines, songs and perfume, two things that i personally think has a nostalgic effect on our senses, and mind! Congratulations on your win.

Great entry for the contest, Belle. Songs and singing have a way of touching us emotional and taking us deeper in everyway. Music has a mystical side to it that's hard to understand, but we feel it just the same. Good luck in the contest, my friend! Hugs, Bill

Your poem beautifully captures the joy, emotion, and significance of music in shaping the human experience. It portrays music as a universal language that accompanies individuals throughout life's journey, leaving a lasting impression and contributing to the grand symphony of existence.. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you Silent One, your words are a treasure. It would be a dismal life without music and song, both are a gift to world, they soothe our souls when there’s anxiety or pain, makes us happy, stirs emotions and sends one on tripping down memory lane. ~ Belle

Hi Deb, you and I are the same, I love to and sing although I haven’t a singing voice. I went to an ABBA tribute once and the audience was asked if anyone would like to sing, I shot my hand up, got to sing - I Had a Dream - loved it and had the best night ever, people hugged me, danced with me too, it was wonderful… Belle x
