My Pi
(My poem of images)

Select one of the MIDI files. While listening, close your eyes and picture the scene in your mind.  Think how the music looks.  Think of the sites, sounds, smells, and tastes of the scene.  Draw a picture of the scene you imagined. Using the picture you drew as the motivation write a descriptive poem filled with imagery.

Sugar Plum Fairy

Sweet, Pleasant, and Delightful

Sour, Sweet, and Heavenly

Smooth, grainy, polished, and grand

Breathtaking, heavenly, violet, white as snow, and tasteful

Calm, peaceful, happy, and joyful. (Andy '99) Home | Composer Info | Games | The Orchestra | Major Compositions | Help
