Sounds

Sounds

~ “do”
 
Without sounds
Life would be bare
Not a single bird song
Nature would be scared
 
~ “re”
 
Without sounds
The bells would not ring
The clocks that chime
Would not have a swing
 
~ “mi”
 
Without sounds
Raindrops cannot be heard
Playing in puddles
Would sound absurd
 
~ “fa”
 
Without sounds
Music would be lost
Instruments would not exist
The beats would be squashed
 
~ “so”
 
Without sounds
There would be no voice
Silence all around
There would be no choice
 
~ “la”
 
With sounds
Love blooms in all that lives
Bringing laughter into the world
An energy you just cannot resist
 
~ “ti”

Pratibha love your poem and also love the way you turn it around, very nice and cleverly done and a beautiful write again from you.
Reminded me of The Sound Of Music and that is never a bad thing!!!
My favourite musical.
Hope to read more and hope all is well with you my talented friend :)

Thank you for reading and your comments Shaun. I actually wrote the verses for a fb themed contest and then edited it slightly for the anthology I submitted to back in 2023.....as I was editing it came to me to add 'do re me' and I knew it would just work. I think of that musical too. I love Julie Andrews. Will be cosmo a bit more regularly from now on. Px

Utterly true and beautiful, music and sound so very important for all the things most take for granted. I very much enjoyed this creative poem. 🌹
