The Sweetest Song

To hear the sweetest song as the Sun bids me goodnight 
a tune that saturates my soul with joyous jubilation and
perchance that I can only hear just one sound in my life 
a blackbird captivates my heart with his beguiling song
arriving on the very day, the day whence you had gone

This poem has some alliteration lovingly through it, that made me happy as I read.

Dearest, Ann, your comment on my poem RISEN and the information of the Sri Lanka blasts and the death of 138 people and of more than 560 injured, made me write a free verse SRI LANKA BLASTS.
