..
Treble-tremble me loose
oh,
{adagio slow}
untroubled and stanza’d
soft.
Hold me. Un
-fold me to the tempo
of timbre trees,
slur me
………….{legato}
to an indigo sky.
Cadenza me
a seasoned sonata
chant,
a rococo rant,
a tiny shanty by the sea.

Victoria has us making music of words over at dVerse. Come play.
Sounds quite relaxing, you should put it to melody.
near as I can tell a
dancing cerebellum
music doth lift my body adroitly
tuned to where wearing words be not off key
staccato slang sinewy bitten
sirens do call me Winter mittens

as always you’re a treat to read and this one wassails …
Thanks so much, Edward. Great to see you here. 🙂
Cadenza me…..now that’s a sultry statement!! 🙂
Lovely lovely lovely. You always make your words dance. Treble-tremble me….love those words!
You are the best verb-maker, De. My favorite is treble-tremble. This flows so well.
Hmmm. Started one this afternoon and got distracted. Wonder if I can find it…
Pretty — and the latin jazzed it up!
And another thing …
what a beautiful dance of melody and rhythm to end the piece with … sublime 3-2-3 syllabic triple ending “ee” sound … it reminds one of carnivals, Fellini and how the ocean breathes in a certainty of music, a certainty of every myth we dare to put ourselves in and through …
Oh De❤️ this is absolutely splendid!! Love, love “a seasoned sonata chant, a rococo rant, a tiny shanty by the sea.”❤️
splendid is a perfect word for this excellent poem
Wow this was wonderful, the line-breaks, makes me think of something quite modern, like rites of spring or something like that.
Brilliantly imagined!
Your words are dancing across my screen, De! I do love those lines:
‘Hold me. Un
-fold me to the tempo
of timbre trees,
slur me
………….{legato}
to an indigo sky.’
.
so playfully provocative and sensual in some ways ( at least to my ears) I loved every second of this.
You are the most adorable thing. 🙂 So many goodies here. As a whole, it’s fantastic. But also, the opening stanza stands alone as a kinky little yummy something. Same with the second, actually. I especially like:
“Un
-fold me to the tempo
of timbre trees”
“s/lur(e) me” 🙂
and the leg/toe in that “legato” … or is it “leg ate O”? 😛 Or “trees leg-ate oh” (because of the stacking)
I too like “Cadenza me” … but my absolute favorite is “rococo rant.” Roe cocoa rant. That’s when we’re all like, “We want sushi and hot chocolate RIGHT NOW, man!” 😉
“shanty” = “shan’t [ask] ‘why'”
Ooo la la 😉
This is unique and lovely to me. Treble-tremble. What a great usage here. More, please…this was very inventive…something I almost never achieve. But you did….marvelously.
Yes–verb maker extraordinaire for sure. I love the way you wrestle words into your own vibe. Like Kim, you had me at /slur me/legato/to an indigo sky/–line breaks were stunning as well.
Slur me into an indigo sky .. yes, to that I can relate! Take me to those beautiful undigo skies!
a rococo rant,
a tiny shanty by the sea.
A stop-over at the shanty shack by the sea should be fun. Serene peaceful and breezy!
Hank
A very romantic use of those words!
Now this is a poem I can sway to! Love it, De.
