Composition



Parts were assigned
roles defined
rough edges were smoothed
and polished
words of the mouth
we're scripted  and doubt
was rehersted and studied away
They contracted strings
and woodwinds and things
Each word was twerked and
sorted out.
Sopranos would lead in the
 East.
Altos in the North
Tenors would sing a western song
Basses shall perform in the South
Concerto houses would would
encompass sounds of perception
In space.
eyes will know thesbains
recognize there character
be proud that they have come
applauds shall speak to the
Level  of talents a night
Of music and song.
