A Poetry Game for Open Link Weekend # 101 Earthweal

How Many Musical Terms can you find ?

the Busoni boys went to sea
in a beautiful pea green boat
in search of tierce de picardie
an island in the legato sonata sea

inhabited mostly by poets and musicans
it was owned by Major 3rd who won it
in a poker game from his cousin Crescendo
now diminuendo'd from too much
vino and vivace

for a while all went well
until dissonance broke out with too many disputes
beween the neapolitan 2nds and the french 6ths
and prestissimo partying by exuberant poets con brio
the neighbouring islanders complained
allegro is fine
ma non troppo

the Busoni Boys decided to leave
they crammed violin cases with tutti and brass
and made plans to rendez vous with the gorgeous grace note gals
Mogadonna Coloratura, Courtney Act Concerto and Fairy Moans Finale
at Coda island owned by Bessie May Mucho and Barbara Seville
