Vijay Pandit Poet Rispetto

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.

Duke Beaufort February 27, 2024 at 4:42 PM 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.

Ink Empress November 17, 2023 at 8:40 AM 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
