The Poet Within

All feels right with my world today, so my inner child wants to play. And I begin laughing out loud, feeling as airy as a cloud. A rhythmic vibe vibrates the air, a natural beat pulses there. And I can feel it in my bones, a cacophony of soft tones. Lyrics audition in my mind; where words and music get combined. And I want to shout out in glee, happy to be alive and free. The poet within me breaks out, bandying witty words about. And my muse starts strumming along, spinning my words into a song.

Emile, Congratulation's on a fine Rhyme. Discussing your book and poetry has been one of my favorite pastimes with my peers and coworkers. My favorites from the book: It All Comes Down To Love, Burlap & Satin. We May Never Know -Richard

This is very lighthearted, Emile. Poetry really is a cacophony of tones, words sometimes a jingle, sung in tune.
