Okay, I'll Choose One

Okay, I’ll Choose One

Opera I do not love,
opera I learned to hate;
it seemed to me a trifle rough
and on my nerves did grate.

By chance I came upon,
in YouTube session former,
a song of songs, a wondrous song -
I discovered Nessun Dorma.

It’s opera I hear you say
and I would not deny,
but beauty lives in several ways
and this song touches sky.
