Whoops, Marisha ~ at least in the way I'm saying them... the middle one for sure; your middle line is 8 and your last line is 6. Very interesting continuation and development on the line, regardless 8) .

We may need the Grecian Man, originator of the thread, to clarify on the syllables... visual, literal, or spoken.

thanks, I can't count!

here it is, with only 7 in the middle line (the "quite" was a filler I never needed!), and 5 in my count for the last but with very proper pronunciation I cna understand why you said it was 6. I am saying it as "muooo tchall"

counting no import
victory over hatred
lets talk about love
We’ve all come to
This moment
To find out
Who we are.
Painted colors
Scribed words
Sweetly found.

This paraphrase popped into my head while I was showering--I thought of changing the last post but people may have already seen it so I'll offer this alternative (apologies to the master):

let's talk about love
not chains we cannot untie
eyes soft with sorrow

bright plastic flowers
dull taste in décor, I prefer
bright plastic surgeons
