Such beauty in the spirit of the song,
Like tiny angels flighting thousandfold-
Like gold in love’s first kiss that wakes the dawn.

And such a voice does not know right from wrong,
Reaching out for meaning to keep hold-
Such beauty in the spirit of the song.

Ensculpting images in flight along,
this voice cannot render what it is told-
like gold in love’s first kiss that wakes the dawn.

'Tis ever-changing yet, so very calm,
The paintings in the mind are strong and bold-
Such beauty in the spirit of the song.

Each word this voice sings lingers on and on...
Love’s measured in incense and in gold-
like gold in love’s first kiss that wakes the dawn.

N’er there were alterations that were wrong.
Feeling takes upon those much too cold.
Such beauty in the spirit in the spirit of the song,
Like gold in love’s first kiss that wakes the dawn.

Wow - this is so cool

One voice, this is great! A villanelle is difficult to tackle for anyone and you breezed through it with ease. Very, very nice job!
