ideal worlds play a symphony
angels in four-part harmony
the cosmos an eternal guide
it carries my soul and my pride
mellow serenades fill the skies
daytime hellos nighttime goodbyes
life’s magic an eternal guide
it carries my soul and my pride
my soul sings born to be alive
my spirit determined to thrive
life’s journey a magical ride
it carries my soul and my pride

Poetry form Kyrielle –
A Kyrielle is a French form of rhyming poetry written in quatrains (a stanza consisting of 4 lines), and each quatrain contains a repeating line or phrase as a refrain (usually appearing as the last line of each stanza). Each line within the poem consists of only eight syllables. There is no limit to the amount of stanzas a Kyrielle may have, but three is considered the accepted minimum.

Both beautiful and inspirational – a great read for the morning. Though I must confess the title brought a certain song into my head when I first saw it!

It’s interesting that the title brought a certain song into your head! I was listening to the song while writing the poem. With that said, I think one has to be a fan of music in the late 1970s or early 1980s to know and like this song.

That is the song, and it is back in my head! This song is a major earworm for me whenever it comes up 🙂
That is neat that is the song you were listening too!
It’s a beautiful poem! Back when I did more writing I did something similar to myself, but I think it involved a Sarah Mclaughlin song 😉
