The Poetry in Music
We all have a certain song(s) that simply grip us by the heart and have us bumping our heads along. Sometimes you're not even consciously aware of the words to a song you like. Songs are simply sung poetry. Share the lyrics from one of your favourites or simply something you're listening to at the moment. Since it's the month of love it must be a love song. Enter as many songs as you like, no entry limit. Please tag me when you enter, and hope you enjoy it.

Blakey in Poetry & Free Verse

This is how

The poetry in music sounds to me

Sometimes it makes sense and thus I feel free.

At times it sounds like a load of gibberish

So I feel out place just like a fish

Out of my depth with the nonsense they spill

I just want to say that I’ve had my fill

Of lyrics which doesn’t mean anything more

Than meaningless rubbish just as a bore

Which switches me off quick as a flash almost as if I’m in a dash

To reconnect with the poetry in music

When people had talent and knew how to use it.

Sometimes you will find a poet once more

Who adds their poetry straight on a score.

So poets out there be not dismayed

For soon once again it’ll be your day
