M is for Music
For this poem, I wrote it in a ballad form and tried to use lots of M words.
Max, the musician, played music in
the square
People often passed on by, as if he
wasn’t there,
No one gave him money or paid him any
mind
Until Maura appeared, a girl both
fair and kind,
She stopped for a moment and listened
to his song
He looked up with surprise when she
began to sing along
Her voice was smooth like mocha fudge,
he could listen to her all day
He fell in love with her that
instant, and asked if she would stay,
A massive crowd gathered round, to
listen to her sing
Max proposed to her that night, even
though he had no ring,
They married in the month of May in
the market where they met
They were so swept away by love, they
barely noticed their debt,
Crowds came to hear Maura sing and
she became a star
People came from all around, some
even came quite far,
Finally their music paid off and began
to make them rich
And now they have three kids named
Melanie, Mark and Mitch.
This April I am participating in the A-Z Challenge
