Summary: Poem expressing my love of string instruments




Did you know
That I love the sound of a string,
Those instruments that sing?
Like human voices,
Left with no choices.
But to air their hearts,
Their innermost parts.

Did you know
That the violin can weep,
And send the world to sleep,
Dazed? On harmony, discord
And its melancholic chord.
Whilst cellos murmur mellow mantras,
Like strumming-pained guitars.
