Thread Name: Repeating the first verse at the end
Subject: RE: Repeating the first verse at the end
I will sometimes repeat the first line or so, but rarely the entire verse. This can be especially effective if the opening line sets the stage for a repeating scene. The only example of this that comes to mind is: "Fog's rollin' in off the East River bank
Like a shroud it covers Bleeker Street"

It sounds far better than it looks in print ;-)
