Piano moments

Literal Life. D.K. Shepard's Vocal prompt.

By Antoni De'LeonPublished 8 months ago β€’ 1 min read
Game time

Vermilion beauty beckons me to her bosom, as at the piano I sit and gaze

Outside the window, nature in all her beauty, spreads her sumptuous arms

Clearly, I hear the angelic notes played upon the scarlet grace of the piano

And so, I begin to compose illustrious verses of poetic grandiloquence

Lofty, extravagant, wonderous and beautiful in its ornate magniloquence.

.....

V.O.C.A.L.

Oh, so very easy to navigate

Compared with other writing sites

A pleasure to relax and compose

Languishing in the joy of it all.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The prompt.

    What a sumptuous scene you've painted and I love the little review/commentary on Vocal bonus one you included too!

  • The first one was stunning and the second one is sooo true. Loved both Acrostics!

    This description of the piano and nature sounds really nice. It makes me picture a beautiful scene. I'm curious, what inspired you to write this? Also, how do you think the ease of navigation on this site compares to others you've used for writing?
