Consonance
What hopeless and hapless dreams be pinned
The wistful and wishful of wantings penned
A magic in the tragic of what world brings
From pulse and pierce of perfect pearled strings
Thus, the sentient sentiments sequenced
By the pride, prejudice, or pretense
Are chaffed and challenged to wit
By reality’s grating and grainy grit
Within the lyrical and lilting lines
Repeating rhymes in rhythmic time
The hidden bidden to be heard
One wonder of the written word
The tripping, tricky, and sticky tones
The greatest and latest in words alone
A mystical, mythical, magical part
A proverbial product of pronounced art
Precocious and playful preambles
As elegant and eloquent rambles
As little, laughing lines in resonance
Are wrapped and robed in consonance
