| Sample Audio |
About Our AudioAs I am neither singer, nor musician, these audio sample files are offered as suggestions only or a starting point for the more creative musician. They can be used as a basis for a musical score or incorporated into a larger scheme. They are offered in order to indicate the tunes intended for some of the lyrics which singers and musicians might find of some use. My craft is only song and lyric writing, not performing, so the audios are offered as is. |

| Sonnets |
About Our SonnetsThe sonnet is one of the poetic forms that can be found in lyric poetry from Europe. The term "sonnet" derives from the Occitan word sonet and the Italian word sonetto, both meaning "little song." The conventions associated with the sonnet have evolved over its history. The rhyme scheme in a Shakespearean sonnet, for example, is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG, in which the last two lines are a rhymed couplet. |
