What is NaPo Verse? It's a song to celebrate the arrival of a Poet's Universe. Don't delay, check it out here!

In order to pump up and inspire our poets, we've created some beats to liven up our creative juices. Here's introducing the new single, Stronger than Words to our series of YWS soundtracks, as a celebration of National Poetry Writing Month for April.

Here's a preview:

Lyrics

Spoiler! :
This is *Your Name*.
Back together.
And now April's coming round for us to pen a poem or two, we're writing by the letter.
And every poem getting so much better. The group of us ain't gonna follow your rules
so join us and pick some figurative tools.

Let's go and write a tune.
Let's write a poem or two.

Go ahead and try to write me if you're able
can't you see that poetry is very playful?

I can see you love the words we intermingle
and all the metaphors and the symbols

and we're not gonna stop what we've written together
We are gonna write like this forever

April comes and goes, but we're always a member
of the Y-W-S poetry club. We are made

o-o-o-o-ofLove.

o-o-o-o-ofLove.

o-o-o-o-ofLove.

Lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o-ove

mmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm[hums]

This is who we are.

This is our passion.

And if you think you want to join us, then you need to, come on now!

Poetry's a feeling, and it will never end.

And it can be a painful journey
but we are here with all our friends.

Go ahead and try to write me if you're able
Can't you see that poetry is very playful?
I know you think a poem's something you're afraid of
but all you really need is something creative.

I am even more than a group of words
Everything you care about is what I am.
I am their fury.
I am their patience.
I am a conversation.

I am made

o-o-o-o-of

lo-o-o-o-ove

lo-o-o-o-ove

And it's stronger than words.

Lo-o-o-o-ove

o-o-o-of L-o-o-oove

And it's stronger than words.

*Lo-o*-o-o-ove

o-o-o-of *L-o*-o-oove

And it's stronger than words.

Lo-o-o-o-ove

o-o-o-of L-o-o-oove

...I'm confused, are we supposed to log in to hear that "preview"? I'm game for contributing (though I'm pretty sure I sound terrible), but I'm so confused right now. Am I supposed to know the tune of this song? Because I don't.

As requested, the cutest effing Kyll that ever sang.

I hope you laugh so hard you cry. Singing like that is hard, even without all the microphone issues I've been having.

And have another where I tried, but with the mic that makes me sound like a little girl because it was the only one I could get to work.

Yay! <3

I'm gonna have fun mixing these X'D

Also - to the site at large! There's still loads of time to submit entries 8D! It's a hard tune, yes, but sooo much fun!
