To Gods of songs and stories everywhere...

Bring me happy melodies...no more sad refrains.

By Antoni De'LeonPublished about a year ago • 2 min read

Dearly beloved Gods of stories and songs everywhere

Hello, Angels flitting upon the winds

Embracing us with arms of creative composing

Please listen as I ask in avid supplication

For healing for humanity's collective abundance

I don't want to sing any more sad songs

There are so many, many...

Saddened tales adorned in shades of woebegone sorrow

Hearts broken, souls crestfallen, forlorn and glum

The hums of reject, death, loss and despondent misery

Resound through the halls of time

I exhort and importune thee

Let fly far away, the impish, malevolent devils,

To gather grief and take their leave...

Downcast souls despairing, disconsolate

Rise all, from dismal melancholy

Today,

Gods and Angels

Lift spirits high to the celestial sky

Por favor, please

I don't

want to read any more sad ballads of woe

I Don't

want to Read Any More Sad Songs of injustice

I’ve closed the book, I’ve shut the door,

No sorrowed croons, no aching broken tunes.

Let the melodies lift and rise,

No more tear-stained lullabies.

The air is sweet,

the sky is wide,

There’s laughter rolling down cobbled streets.

I want...give me byways filled with...

the songs that dance and shine,

That echo joy in every line.

Go bring me stories bold and bright

No more shadows

creeping through the night, love shorn

Play me a chorus filled with golden voices---

Uplifting tunes of glorious days

Sung to heart's overtures of jubilation.

I Don't

want to sing Any More Sad Songs

Grant us happy, happy lullabies

Ones that leaves the sorrow behind

Embracing brighter cares

In sweeter melodies.

I Don’t

want to Sing Any More Sad Songs

No more verses drowned in rain,

No more echoes filled with pain.

I choose

a tune that lifts me high,

Like sunlight

breaking through the sky.

The chords will dance, the notes will shine,

a rhythm bursting, bold...divine.

No whispers of the past I’ve known,

Just voices strong,

a joyful serenade.

So let the music play anew,

a melody fresh, alive, and true.

No more

sad songs in my rhyme,

Just golden tunes that stand in time.

Amen.

So let it be!
