Winter Orchestra

Something i had to whip up in 5 minutes or less.

The stars are a silent symphony,

flowing notes flutter down on the snow.

Hear the songs play beautifully,

twisting and twirling moving and growing.

A stellar performance met with lunar applause,

the strings and brass leave the ice in awe.

Percussion and wind grips with melodic claws,

A great crescendo without a single flaw.

The curtain calls as the sun awakes,

the music retreats to crystal flakes.

A whole new style of music begins,

percussion brass strings and winds.

Author's Note

First day of high school our English teacher gave us 5 minutes to write an acceptable poem that did not require any specific format. So.. yeah here.

This is such a harmonic poem. The notes falling silent as the sun rises, and then to return when it sets the following night. Beautifully written! Thank you for sharing this

Sometimes, forced exercises can produce unexpected results. Serendipitous, even.
Lovely flow to it all, and a perfect decrescendo of an ending

It really is. Like I said I had 5 minutes so I'm pretty proud of this one. I got an A+ ... this was written when I was a senior in high school....I'm 28. I dunno if that damns me in anyway but I'm always looking for improvement ideas for everything I write.

Wow.....what a poem. I am in awe.

[LastSkywalker]

Oh wow... thank you!

[light and ashes]

You are very welcome! This work deserves high praise! :)

You're offering some impressive poems for a new member. I like the metaphoric comparisons in this very much. I'm sure your teacher was happy with what you handed in. Good job.

Well thank you. What I have that I'm potting up have been in the works since I was 14 and 20 and now I've been trying to get back in to it between 21 and 28. I'm starting with tweaking what I've already written just to get that flow going and then, hopefully, I'll have a muse again and be back in business :)

[Relic]

I wish you luck.

[LastSkywalker]

Thank you. And you as well.
