“S” Sing-Sang-Sung
Iβve sang songs as I have sat by the sea shore
Iβve 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

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!
