Septolet Symphony

Septolet Symphony

Songs,
from a poet’s
heart,
ring true.

Reflective
voices dwell, gentle,
in my ears.

*********

Music,
makes magical
mosaic moments
in my mind.

Poetry
is like verbal
orchestral paintings.

**********

Voices,
raised in song,
reflect
a poet’s dreams.

Poems,
when read aloud,
become music.

Del Warren Livingston © Nov. 2004

    Wow. I do believe I will study his work as the next poet to study. Simplicity with depth. I seriously never thought it could be done. I'm in awe.

    i know... not really where you are, but where you come from... i hope where you come from is where you have gone... i hope you are reading this... rest rest-less for we need you... too late (forget the pun) in finding you... and this... not having ever read anything by you before i feel like i am faling my self... and i, pledge to you? pledge is a strong word... but i will do my best to please you... rest rest-less, we need you... and now we have you to remember, and what else could a poet want other than to be remembered?

    A True poet

    I do not know if I can comment, I do not know if anyone, after me will read this note. I do know that he was beautiful and this is such an odd way to meet. I do know that he was a great poet and I do know he breathed life into me tonight.

    A wonderful description of poetry. This is what is heard when everything goes into a poem. I love the alliterations in the 1st 'stanza' of the 2nd septolet. This is an intriguing form and you have worked magic with it.

    Some poetry when read aloud becomes music...mine becomes noise polution.
    It;s quite beautiful, and expresses what we all hope others see when we write. I saw.
