Songs of the heart.

When music inspires.

Listen to the jazz interlude

the skies turn a dreamy blue.

An apocalypse takes flight

with a silent fit of might.

In plain sight,

Oh foreboding plight

Unleashing fury. Sparking, marking

as the stars sparkle into light.

Author's Note

Just thought I'd try something new with music as the inspiration. So, what do you think?

An interesting poem...

[FuMiko]

For lack of a better word, it's very jazzy. The rhyme carries it along at a rhythm that flows really well. Very well written, thank you for sharing.

Great idea! Hmm, I think you should have more referance to the aspects of music as you write along. I like the apocalypse lines! Good write.

Pretty cool...like the jazz reference. Always have associated blue with jazz, not sure why! The rhyming creates an interesting rhthym and I like that not every line rhymes, that you broke it up. Almost lyrical in a sense. Reminds me of the fireworks and July 4th, very Americana. Great job!

I am a fan of this, I tell you what!! Right of the bat, I am enjoying the pairing of the words "jazz" and "blue", which I think is so clever, ie., singing the blues.

Secondly, the rhymes in this are so much fun! The second rhyme, that is carried through ties it all together at the end. That was very smart and well-done. I really like the internal rhyme in the penultimate line-- it creates and energy that climaxes right before the sort of relaxing ending of the piece.

I have found that short poems are almost always better. People are a lot more likely to read them, first, and also your message tends to be much more distinct and to the point.

Another good poem. :-)
