Lovely canzonetta, Yvonne! You really wove that feeling of nostalgia into this poem and I you make me want to hear that familiar tune, too! It's magical scene in the woods and you've convinced me that it's all real!

A very beautiful enchanting poem. I like the way you describe the setting complete with a Brook, and a sycamore tree. I like the sentiment of wanting to hear a tune one more time, and I surmise it's a long lost love. The photo beautifully complements your poem. I love its rhythm .
Best wishes,
Cindy

Hello Yvonne. I probably should not read critiques or reviews of poetry I do not understand and am not familiar with. This is a style I've never seen and certainly will never write but I did like the descriptive nature of the content of your poem.

Ah and what a wistful tone your Canzonetta has, Yvonne.

The dreamy sentiment so aptly illustrated in this enchanted wood. There is something about melodies arising from brooks in enchanted forest that beguiles us.

Written in your always lyrical metre and rhyme.

I think I like this Canzonetta form. :))

Beautifully expressed. The emotion really shows. Certain places will bring back the music and memories of the past. And remembering the song brings back memories of that special person, and at the moment you can see him standing there. Lovely description of the place with the brook and enchanted room. This is a lovely a lovely form to work with. It sounds so musical. judi

I like the first sentence used in the second half with the only difference is the pronoun and actions of remembering and stood; you returned to the very spot "it happened" and though you thought it couldn't happen again "it did", ending with the same happy tune. This is a nicely written rhyming Canzonetta. giovanni

This Canzonet poem speaks very nicely, smoothly, in a free flow of thoughts, about a melody you heard and liked and wish to listen the tune once more; well said, well done; enjoyed the read; thanks for sharing this; keep posting. ALCREATOR
