A Plagiaristic Ode To Me Compact Disc Player
I've not done a Plagiaristic Poem for a while, and I usually use the sonnet, villanelle or acrostic forms, but I thought I would try an ode for the Vocal Ode To Ordinary challenge. I at first chose my Debit card but then noticed "This Is Soul" on top of my CD rack, and thought that would be perfect, choose album titles for the plagiarism and let it loose. I may follow this up with a piece based on my record player.

Do You have a Support Network?
Life is harder when youβre on your own. Human beings are social creatures, and we usually feel better when we have support from a strong social network around us. For most people, itβs our families that hold us together like glue.

Awww, such a lovely and sweet poem!
Lovely absolutely lovely!!!β€οΈβ€οΈπ
That was lovely!! I love The Corrs! They are one of my favorite bands.
Beautiful, Mike. Words everyone would love to hear, live & experience.
Beautiful piece.
Woke up to this poem and its enchanting and musical words. Real polish to the expression, and effortless placing of strong and caring words. You work so freely in such a classic fixed form, tis inspiring. :) still groggy though. Have a good morning!
This is good, I love it! It tells of a sweet love. You are so good at expressing this stuff!
I like this idea of βBEFOREβ you wake- itβs very romantic and denotes a kind of selflessness. A great piece and Iβm always interested in the music you reference. I havenβt listened to the Corrs in years. Takes me back. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful
This is the sweetest poetry π₯° If you ever want to get into a card business. Or make a book out of this beautiful poetry greetings
