If I were to sing a song for Sophia
The notes would flutter about like butterflies
Painting swirls of brilliant colour
That reflect rainbows in her lovely eyes
If I were to sing a song for Sophia
The melody would fly her up above the clouds
To a haven of hope that welcomes dreams
Where she’s never told ‘no, you’re not allowed’
If I were to sing a song for Sophia
The lyrics would chat to her as if to a friend
Weaving laughter through each eloquent verse
And a truth on which she could always depend
If I were to sing a song for Sophia
The drums would beat to the pace of her heart
Comforting her in those echoes of silence
When she feels as though she’s falling apart
If I were to sing a song for Sophia
The instruments would each sound with perfect precision
Not one chime would be out of time
Her life, a symphony of a happy vision
If I were to sing a song for Sophia
She’d store the recording in the nook of her soul
A tender humming and daily reminder
That she is nothing other than immaculately whole
If I were to sing a song for Sophia
We’d do cartwheels to the song that I sang
We’d dance until dawn with eager abandon
Because we are each other’s ying and yang
Beautiful! I can hear her melody of life playing so loudly while I read your poem. Thank you xoxoxox
So beautiful Nat! xxx

I like this one a lot Gas. It flows beautifully and although it does not need music, this could work well with some musical accompaniment and melody.
