Find a guitar, play something and read your poem out loud...

i tried (well i am still in the process of) turning a love poem bout my boyfriend into a song.. i play just simple chords on my keyboard and into the poem i wrote a chorus which i repeat. are you playing an instrument with it? if so what instrument?
