Sounds of Earth

“The sounds of Earth is the music of my soul.” Sounds of earth echo from mountains and meadows, Lauding nature's rhythms as zephyrs gently blow, Strumming soul's music burbling rivers compose, Rippling babbling waves giggling with ebb and flow; Where seasons rustle whirling autumns, and springs, Where butterflies waltz, fluttering ardent wings; While lured by birdsongs, sweet melodies I long, When stars stage symphony to nightingale’s song.

I found this poem. It's a beautiful tribute to the sounds we may hear. Indeed, the more carefully we look for beauty, the more likely we are to ensure its preservation.

Wow this is truly a magical rispetto. I am in awe, captivating imagery throughout, the rhymes, alliterations and descriptive diction is surreal so gorgeous and mellifluous. I especially love “ Strumming soul's music burbling rivers compose, Rippling babbling waves giggling with ebb and flow“ i can almost hear this. And see butterflies waltz too! Truly magnificent. Another fave for me. Love reading u

You have created such a wonderful verse in this Rispetto form, that seems to have some limitations in syllable counts and rhyme schemes, which I have so far never tried Vijayji. First stanza JUST beautiful! As always, lovely alliterations and rhymes. This contest filled up so fast, oh my and am afraid I may miss it... Best wishes in the contest... God bless... ~ Ani
