Placed 2nd: Life Is a Song Poetry Contest by Ink Empress


 

Chorus of ecstatic themes, lyrical refrain of dreams, life is a song, Of valued relationships, earnest friendships, that long to belong, Of courtships, love, and passion; igniting romantic flame of heart, Of memories nostalgic, sensuous mellifluous melodies impart. A passage on rough seas, vying abode upon shores of morrow, Through storms of yesteryears, defying hurricanes of sorrow, Traversing to joy of springs, rising from decay of wintry woes, Aspiring to future of sunny days, exiting past of gloomy shadows. An odyssey ethereal, harmonizing life’s verses, in stanzas of time, A symphony melodious, extolling serenity of journey sublime; In ballroom of glamor, life is an exotic ballet~ an enthralling dance, Grooving doting realms of love, sponsoring concert of romance. Sonorous is resonance of life, serenading bequest of benevolence, Reverberating in goodwill vibes, defying grimace of malevolence, Tranquil in hymns lauding reverence, heartbeats cadent compose, Humming chords of empathy, teachings compassionate chose. Celebrating life; applause and laughter abound, in gleeful sound, When emanating from hearts and minds, tolls of felicity resound, When treasured albums of love and joy~ prompt us to sing-along Proclaiming in rhapsodic beats, rising to crescendo: life is a song.

Through music, its sweet, yet tender melody, you've expressed the many moments that curl around life. Days, even the glimpse of a season, tangle around your words poetically; while holding a bit of melancholy. Your thoughts are beautiful and emotional, all at the same time. My best to you, Vijay. Hugs, Brandy

I love your take on the contest theme. Your poem is melodious and lyrical with its imagery of a 'life song.' Your poem is layered in that it addresses the many aspects of life--love, troubled waters, yesteryears, memories and so vividly. A true winner, I believe. Best wishes with the contest, Sara

Beautiful poetry as per usual Veej. Funny, I was just humming a Carpenter's song when I came upon this. "Sing, sing a song, make it simple to last a while life long ..."

I love this! Your poem is a lyrical masterpiece that encapsulates the symphony of life with eloquent verses. The vivid imagery of a life song, from valued relationships to the courtships of love, paints a rich collection of experiences. The metaphors of rough seas and storms of yesteryears, transitioning to the joy of springs, beautifully capture the ebb and flow of life's journey..The use of musical metaphors, such as the 'Chorus of ecstatic themes' adds a delightful rhythm to the poem..
