( a Sonnet )
The melody from snow that falls,
Its swirling melee are the reeds,
With chorus from a crow that calls
Its sound a single brass horn bleeds.
The wind that bends the upper pine
Creates a ghostly lyric’s rush,
For months to pass & Spring to find,
Between the gray sky’s drift & hush.
With Winter’s life & death well met,
Then chime of crystalline snowflake,
The gentle soul of string quartet
That dances ‘cross a frozen lake,
‘Till crash of cymbals swell, ascend
To storm of kettle’s booming end.

Thank you, Again, for your thoughts and the recommend. I’m glad you like the piece.🐯 Concerning writing using a syllable count, it actually can be fun - it is for me - but practice is what will help it become more second nature for a poet. I’ve been a poet since I was a child and I still practice.
You should if you hope to be good.
Hey, I’m a poet & don’t even know it!😆

Why thank you so much, dear Tim. I’ve done the Sonnet form but not lately, so I very much enjoyed writing this.

Beautifully worded and rhymed, Jade. I wish I could write with such elegance...
Aah, thank you so much, my dear crowfly friend. But you have your own special poet’s voice; unique in its expression. And just as you admire & wish you could write at times in the style of another poet, don’t think for a moment there aren’t others who admire & wish they could write in ways they’ve read from you.
You’re in my thoughts, 👩🏻🎨Thomas.

This is a beautiful relating of nature with music, it conveys that same dramatic quality, like a live symphony would with its many sounds..

Exactly so, my kindred poetess. And thank you, I’m honored that your presence & words have graced my work.

Why thank you, how very kind of you to come by for a read and share that with me.

Thank you so very much for coming over for a read. Your words & RL: most generous.

Truly a symphony of words. I loved how when I read it out loud I could hear the different parts of the orchestra, honing in on the horns, cymbals, and maybe a violin hiding in there. I can almost see/hear a lone ice skater on an isolated pond spinning to the beauty you had made. thank you for your inspiration of imagination.

Why thank you most kindly Loral for sharing how my piece came to life through your senses. And yes, I’m sure you did indeed hear the strings! Other sections within the piece are reeds (clarinet, oboe, flute), brass (horns), percussion (chimes, triangle, cymbals, kettle drum). It means a lot how my words gave you beauty & music.🎶
