Dear Mystery Author,
I loved your musical life's symphony. I can just hear all of these beautiful sounds flowing together in the concert of life.
This well written.

    Ciao poet!

    Thank you for the delightful review .. I live near pine woods so I am blessed .. there is also a stream that speaks ( biggrin)

    I hope you enjoyed the vid I provided .. I also wish you the luck to hear live Nature?s wondrous choir one day.

    Keep safe !

You have used several literary techniques. Your alliteration is rhythmic and will draw the reader in. The onomatopoeia effects the clash of the cymbals. Clever. I'm pleased you mention Mother Nature. I heard a great question: "Does art copy nature or does nature copy art?" This was fun.

    Ciao Liz O Neill

    Thanks for such a detailed review .. I try to have some rhyme which helps the flow when reading the poem but my main goal is to present something that surprises .. looking at the vote count I think I managed that .

    To reply to your question : I think nature inspires art .. painters are overwhelmed by nature s beauty and try to capture that beauty on canvas

    People buy their work to be able to enjoy that beauty at home ( which maybe in a desolated area, where nature is less prominent or maybe if someone is in jail ) .

    Galileo was inspired by nature .. his methodically study ( drawings in details) of birds , their wings helped him design the first ideas for gliders , parachutes etc

    If I misunderstood your question, sorry

    Keep safe !

    No, you gave a reflective answer. I think that is the purpose of the question

Very nice. I was a little surprised by the "gurgling" description of music. Never read it described that way. Interesting! I loved the poem. I liked how your poem celebrates music. As a fan myself I could appreciate it. Well written and enjoyable.

    I ve lived most of my life near pine woods at 700m
    so I have heard often nature s choir .. there is a stream too ..

    in winter the flow is gentle but come spring when the snow on the mountains starts to melt there is actually a gush

    I appreciate your input and I have edited the word gurgling to gushing ...

    There is a gurgle too but I m not sure if any musical instrument can actually mimic the sound .. ( biggrin)

    Thank you for your helpful review!

Well done poem in comparing natures sounds to that of the musical instruments. It was clever and creative.
I enjoyed the read and thought.
Good work.
Good luck in the contest.
