: Poetry Set to Music

Song Backstory:

Adding music to poetry is a very interesting concept: How to present the poem in a musical style that captures the essence of the poem itself?

One of my friend Riina's poems, "SERAPHIM ANGELS - Preparing the Feast", from her book of poetry, Spirit Verses, is about the time after the Final Battle when the Most High returns to claim his throne.

The music matches the power and majesty of such an event, and the poem dropped into the song as if the lyrics were meant for the piece.

Lyrics:

Song for the one
On the throne
Assemble the chariots
King is coming home

Song for the star children
Treasures of earth
Vessels of light

Song for the dragons
Hearing our call for freedom

Song for the alliance
Great white brotherhood
And sisterhood of Rose
Ever present and loving

Song for the animal kingdom
Nurturing the souls
As loyal friends

Song for the dropouts
And rebels

Without you the world would fall
Without you the world would fall

Song for Gaia
Union of sky and earth

Song for the cherubs
Our companions on earth
Preparing the feast
