Write on! 'Tis said that music be the food of love Then poetry is surely love's hors d'ouvre The poet's hand is guided from above And writes of earthly passion with such verve. Is poetry perchance love's melody? For rhyme and music both so please the ear They complement each other splendidly Proclaiming what all lover's long to hear. Hark the opera singer's soaring voice The passion in their song so loud and clear Then for the poet, let us all rejoice For without words, there'd be no song to hear. Thus poetry and music are as one Romantic poets everywhere: write on! 15th January 2021

Romantic poetry is always the best though I sometimes venture into the dark of the soul. ~~

Thank you Harry, without one or the other there’d be no songs to sing and that’d be a dismal thing ~ Belle

Beautiful sonnet Belle, I do like the form and over the years have written a few. Before joining soup I always thought poetry was a rhyme, how wrong was I, it certainly opened my eyes. Enjoy your weekend. Tom
