“S” Sing-Sang-Sung
Iโve sang songs as I have sat by the sea shore
Iโve written songs about singing songs
I sang while sitting by the sea shore
I am a song sang while sitting by the sea shore.
I am the sea of which you sang while sitting there singing by the shore
I am the wind of which she sang as she set singing songs by the sea shore
I am the shore that set by the sea since eternity did sing of me
And I sing of the days and the nights when you sat singing songs
About the sea that sang songs about me as I set singing songs
BY THE SEA SHORE

I will make my students sing this song about the sea and sigh as symphony pervades the air. Good work!

Lovely piece. The repetition makes it hypnotic, so to me your song is really a Gregorian chant. Thanks for sharing this one for the rally!

I remember a tale that mermaids sing in the sea to lure men in their trap…this poem of yours sounds like about a singing mermaid…but of different melody!
LOved the sing, sang, sung of it! I could feel the rhythm of your words!
