Avalon-A poem set to music

from John Dyhouse · host John Dyhouse

"And now for Something completely different", thanks Monty. In my explorations and experiments with Suno AI, I wondered if I could use a little of my poetry, Prompting for speech/spoken word did not seem to work so I decided to add a little music. There were several verses to this poem, I chose the most likely candidate, and selected it as a chorus/bridge. Just to add a change for interest, And prompted Suno for a short recorder solo after each verse - why not? And this was the result... I actually quite like it. There are a few issues with mis-spoken words, but I found out what I wanted to from the experiment. So I decided to upload kit here; I don't often quote the lyrics, but as this was a poem... find them below. Avalon. A poem. If you should visit Avalon That Fair Isle in the west, You’ll find King Arthur’s Spirit there Though’ he, long since laid to rest. It lives in every tree and hill, In every path and stream. It’s magic, strong and welcoming To every man who dreams. Inspired and rested, travel on But know you will return. For the mysteries call out to you, “Come back, take heed and learn”. The Abbey, Tor, and Chalice Well Are three sites you will know? But the Spirit lives most everywhere; Through all time, in ev’ry place you go. (chorus for the Suno experiment) Here, find yourself or find a cause That you can make your own. Just bind yourself to Avalon And answers sought, shall to you be shown. So should you visit Avalon? That fair and magic Isle; Take heed and give yourself a chance To stay and rest awhile.
