Darren White Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Meme by my friend Mel

Song

My head is filled with music
With words and tones and sound
What else makes my world feel good
What else heats my frozen blood
What takes my breath away

As having letters in my hands
As moving words around arrange
And sing inside and move and sway
While bringing words full range
And sing with words as sound

While giving pleasure reading
My images are always found
As rainbows, dancing on a screen
And my hands weave the air, unseen
What my eyes cannot convey

My mouth cannot display
My tongue ties up, but my fingers
Dance and find their place

While words rapidly interlace
While my chair slowly dances
To this twinkling music heard.
Oh if only I could make you see

What my restless mind shows me
What is in this head and what
I find so hard right now to bring
Out to tell you what I sing

Thus the dance continues in a marvelous place any time and every time. Have a wonderful night. This was amazing to me. Well done entirely. Darren White April 17, 2017 at 11:59 PM Yes, isn't it grats that we have a mind that can do everything we cannot do ourselves? It's the most beautiful thing for inspiration

White Wolf April 16, 2017 at 5:54 PM Great imagery in your rhyming words. Every morning I have a different song in my head, but don't realise until I sit outside. What can I say about music that hasn't already been said below, except it is related to the Greek word for Muse, so is Museum! Speaking of muse, I still want to buy yours! Haha ~~~/|\~~~ Darren White April 16, 2017 at 11:10 PM Pfft, yours is as good as mine :) And we write beautiful poems together too!

Sara Ella April 15, 2017 at 3:14 PM Music is the universal language <3 I cannot image life without song and your words <3 Keep singing your words! Darren White April 16, 2017 at 1:26 AM Always, my sweet friend :)

Joanna Daniel April 15, 2017 at 10:12 AM A beautiful look into the poet's mind, Darren, reminds me of one of my favourite hymns "I feel like singing all the time":) Darren White April 15, 2017 at 10:18 AM Jo, thank you so very much for the kind words :)

Anne-Marie Coreggia April 14, 2017 at 8:56 PM Beautifully done Darren. Victor Hugo said:“Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent." When you write to music it can be inspirational, therapeutic, but there are these moments when no words will be able to express what the music conveys:) Amitiés Darren White April 14, 2017 at 11:43 PM Thank you Anne-Marie. And that is the truth too, what you write here.

Lynn Marie April 14, 2017 at 7:40 PM Music is truly...life ...I shudder to think of existing without. It has guided me through the happiest and saddest of times and everything in between. Your words beautifully express it's vital essence. Soulful writing Darren:) a joy to read. lynnxxx Darren White April 14, 2017 at 11:43 PM Thanks Lynn, for me it is exactly the same. Hugs.

Charlie Smith April 14, 2017 at 12:07 PM Music is the language of the soul, well done Darren, keep that song in your heart... Darren White April 14, 2017 at 11:42 PM Music is, absolutely! Thanks Charlie :)

Chris Green April 14, 2017 at 8:41 AM Music is life, at least in my opinion. It seems I always have a song playing in my head. Nicely done my friend. Darren White April 14, 2017 at 8:48 AM Music = poetry = ballet = poetry = music.... I wouldn't know what to do without it. I always have music on, or in my head, I write while music plays, it's my inspiration. Sometimes I have my violin in my hand and pluck its strings, and smile.

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 14, 2017 at 8:30 AM I feel your song in this piece Piroet ;) A lovely day to you my friend! xomo Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 14, 2017 at 9:17 AM I do! Darren White April 14, 2017 at 8:49 AM Thanks mo, see me dance? Have a good day my Unicorn friend :)

Tim Smith April 14, 2017 at 8:25 AM I have to listen to music as well...different genres for different moods. Darren White April 14, 2017 at 8:50 AM Exactly, and sometimes I deliberately start music to bring me in a certain mood because I want to write a very specific sort of poem that requires sadness, happiness, you name it :)

Phil Capitano April 14, 2017 at 7:51 AM Really good Darren, music has played a HUGE part in my life as your's it appears. Keep playing with words and sound, behind the notes your soul will be found. Namaste. Darren White April 14, 2017 at 7:58 AM Namaste Phil! Thank you :) Music is VERY important to me.
