Violin

Students - I fell in love with this old violin yesterday. If only it could talk! If only it could sing! Just imagine the songs this violin must know. It may be difficult for you to see in this photograph, but it is a very old violin. When I held the case, I felt like I was going back in time.
Every line of today's poem has eight syllables except for one of them. Can you find it?
Here is some of my work on this poem. I would say that half of the work, though, happened on the computer today. Sometimes a change of longhand to keyboard helps me out a wee bit, and today was one of those days.

Today, I offer a giveaway of two books here: one copy of THE POETRY FRIDAY ANTHOLOGY FOR SCIENCE compiled by Sylvia Vardell and Janet Wong and one copy of my own FOREST HAS A SONG. Each Saturday of April, I have offered this same giveaway here, for eight books in all. Thank you to Sylvia and Janet for your generosity. Please leave a comment below, and I will draw two names next Tuesday evening to be announced on April 30, the last day of this project.
Please share a comment below if you wish.
