Life's Songs ~*Marge Tindal*~ Life sings of us the songs of mirth The sweetest song life-giving birth Aria of our youth sung in sweet surprise Within our hearts soon harmonized Sings of us through all our days Joyous melodies sung with praise Melody of hearts so tender Pitch us now in sweet surrender Song of another pierces our soul Singing love until we're old Life sings of us sweet lullabies Kisses us softly then says goodbye Within a heart our song returning Hummed now in a heart of mourning It matters much the song life sings Caught in the joy of remembering Life sings of us sweet lullabies Kisses us softly then says goodbye ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Very moving. Songs can be sad, happy, angry,a ny mood. They can say hi or bye also. Very nice poem. |

"Life sings of us sweet lullabies Kisses us softly then says goodbye" a beautiful poem, I often find that music can amplify my mood. Just like poetry, and your poem has made me even happier than before I read it.  ------------------------ "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? " Douglas Adams. "Here chewing your tail is joy" Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time".

Your poetry does sing of nature, or life. Wonderful poem (but then, what else do you create) |

This poem floats like a sweet, sweet lullaby itself, tracing birth to remembrance and ending ... beautifully written and song-like Marge! Best wishes, /Kit |

Marge, if life sings us so many songs, I guess that's why there are so many "grammys". Love your work....as always |

Serenity, my child~ I do love singing ... and I hum the memory of friends. Thanks, love. Balladeer~ I'm glad you enjoyed. I'm not a granny yet !  (Oh, ... you said GRAMMY !) Yeah ... makes sense to me. Love you .... and it figures that a Balladeer would like a poem about songs. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

A song can mean so many different things, depending on the mood...so can life's songs! Perfectly in tune, Marge. WB |

Life sings of us sweet lullabies Kisses us softly then says goodbye ~~~~~~ ~Marge~, this is beautiful... Enjoyed this one very much... regards, sudhir. Life is like a painting, That in an art gallery is left hanging, Though many come just to look at it, A very few actually come to enjoy it. |

Fantastic work Marge, as usual. We should all rejoice in the song of life. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

Yes, songs are a great part of our lives, and they often make some of the best moments of our lives. Sometimes, I don't know what I would do without my music. Listening to great artists, or playing it on the piano. A wonderful reminder, Marge. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

EagleOne~ Rejoicing in song is a good thing. Remembering those who made the melodies hum, is a necessary thing. Corinne~ I could just {{HUG}} you ! Yes, there are songs to be sung, joy to be had ... and humming the memories. Thank you soooooo much for understanding my heart. LoveBug~ I'm so glad you enjoy the music of life. Be happy, dear. Lizzie, my friend~ You know the songs my heart has sung .. and has yet to sing. Thank you for recognizing the tune. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
