A Certain Phrase of Music


There’s a Certain Phrase of Music

There’s a certain phrase of music,
Announcing the shows begun
The excitement builds inside me
As I transform into a nun

The look on everyone’s faces
Shows a place far away
A chain gang working in France
Because they have no say

The music triggers a transformation
Reality is pushed aside
I take on a character
Where some may choose to hide

This phrase is full of passion
Percussion, horns, and strings
Rising anticipation
Before we start to sing

It hits a certain point,
In the ones hardest to break,
It is deep within the soul
Where the music resonates

  2. I loved how I got all of the references in this poem...it makes me feel special. But I also like the fact that you don't have to know exactly what you're talking about to enjoy the poem. I liked that you used rhyme, which made it even more enjoyable. I can also tell how passionate you are about music and I really liked that.
