Her Middle Name is Music

Lyric in Search of a Tune.

 
I like the rhythm in her walk,
I like the tempo in her talk,
the crescendo when she kisses me.
She’s a living, loving melody,
a Grand ‘Ol Opry jamboree.
Her middle name is music.

She’s an operatic aria,
a philharmonic orchestra,
an anatomic symphony,
a rhapsody at Carnegie.

I like her syncopated hips,
the heart-shaped music on her lips,
the jazzy way her eyes are set.
She’s a swinging ragtime minuet,
an orchestrated Juliet.
Her middle name is music.

She’s an a-cappella madrigal,
a sold-out Broadway musical,
a good old fashioned singalong,
a lusty laidback love song.

She’s as sultry as a bistro tune,
as corny as a moon in June.
She’s a serenade in starlight,
she sings away the blues at night.
Lyrically, she’s dynamite!
Her middle name is music.

She rocks and rolls and teases me,
so many ways she pleases me,
My woman’s middle name is music.

So romantic to compare ones love to music and see all the beauty of it in her ... wonderfully written piece, perfectly structured and quite musical in itself. ~ Elizabeth

lol...
what a rollicking good thing.
always admired a man who knows how to play ;]
isnt it funny how we women are even shaped melodically, curvacious adn voluptuous like a violin or a grand piano, all hips and sways and building crescendos. ..
this was beautifully sung.
play it again, eh?

Ah, what beautiful lyrics...and what a shame not to find the "tune" to compliment the words. I hear a Nat "King" Cole or Frank Sinatra type singing this to the top-o-the-charts, friend!! Sss...Wonderful...Marvelous!

Gene: I believe this is an example of how rhyme really can work in a poem. Very well done, my man. This shows your love of woman, of music, of life, I believe. I would love to be someone's music. Continue, my sweet bard.

I am always taken by the way you weave so many facets of yourself into your writing. This poem is light, fun, romantic, strong, resolute, skillful. There's something about the way you write that transports me to another place and time. I feel years from your youth percolating and rejuvenating the surface of today.

A lovely description for a girl, "...she's an a-cappella madrigal..." nothing gives music a more tender image of echoes vanishing among the dew covering a enchanted forest.
Bravo!

Gene,
dah DAH dah DAH dedah dah DAH...and repeat (and vary)...a foxtrot with a hint of tango for sensuality wouldn't really do justice to these rich rich lyrics...once again Cole Porter is sitting up and paying full attention and I can see he's a little jealous, and so he should be. And so is everyone else who aspires to write lyrical poetry. Bravo, maestro!
