Amazing poem JLR. I love the way you describe the rhythm ("drip by drip")
I also enjoyed how you related the pitch to the scale ( do re mi ) and the way you mentioned octaves to relate it to a symphony. This way beautify written. keep writing!

Madison, thank you
Comment from Verna Cole Mitchell
This is an outstanding nonet, using onomatopoeia and making music from the rain. I think this is a favorite of all the nonets I have read. The picture sets the image, and the end is perfect.

Comment from royowen
Oh yes indeed, some folk have said that there is a perfect rhythm that emanates from Heave, that is designed to keep life in place, (my guess) this is perfect, correct syllable count, a great shape, great angle, well done,Jim, blessings Roy

Roy, my favorite music comes from the heavens, especially on warm summer afternoons - to just take the edge off the heat the day.

Well done Jim
Comment from lyenochka
Love how you incorporated all the musical terms into your nonet poem in almost every line: rhythm, tones, timbre, octaves, vibrate, pitch, and do-re-mi! Love the title, too. But would a nonet have too many "rules" for a "No Rules" contest? At any rate, wish you the best in the contest!

Humm good question ...
Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Your nonet is in great form, JLR. Your syllable count
per line is correct. Your art choice pairs nicely with
your descriptive words of rain. Great use of p, d, t,
alliteration. I like the smooth flow from the onset of
rain. You did a great job bringing in the sense of
hearing. Your color scheme is refreshing like the rain.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a well-written poem and the visual fits perfectly with the text. The formation of the poem is great, It's similar to a raindrop. The text fits fine too. I didn't know what this line meant~ the POOLS collect tones drip by drip. Are you talking about swimming pools? Perhaps the word POND which is the same number of syllables fit the poem better. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from karenina
I love these counting forms... They present beautifully center aligned!
Love your musical metaphor throughout. Clever you to change "do re mi" to "do re ME."
I'm counting syllable lines as:
108765432
Pitt/er patt/er/ing rain cre/ates/ rhy/thm
You may be one syllable "over" in line one...
Take a look...
Love the theme!

I love this poem!!!
As a violinist it speaks to my heart. You fantastic imagery is lyrical creating its own musical score. This is a strong contest entry that should do well.
