Here is something I put together yesterday, using William Wordsworth's "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" as the lyric.

This creates very strong prosody, as does most classical poetry for it's strong, pronounced meter.

Many extensions later I had an unwieldy beast which I then tamed in FL Studio.

This is alt universe John Lennon type of singer, joins the Moody Blues, who after "Days of Future Past" decide to do another orchestral outing:

You might find it bombastic, but honestly, I could not do a better job writing a composition to the poem. It seems perfect, to me, as a composition.

The recording less so. I could easily add a vocalist an octave up, in harmony w/the lower voice.

But this does show that Udio WILL stick to custom lyrics you feed it. It is word for word, the Wordsworth poem...

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
By William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
