“…a siren’s song…”…a new book, my poem

by Richard Subber | Apr 9, 2024 | Joys of reading, Language, My poetry, Poetry

the soprano’s tear-stained kyrie

Symphony

A new book

   somehow sings a siren’s song,

a symphony of words

   that make a new tune,

such delight to open any page,

and hear the mezzo’s lilt,

the soprano’s tear-stained kyrie,

and nod as the basso

   closes a chapter

      with words worth repeating,

and let the chorus turn you

   to another page,

for more words

   that suddenly are not strangers,

such old words

   that make a new song.
