Dictionary definitions of '''rhapsody''' would include: “an exaggerated feeling of pleasure or enthusiasm; an exaltation, or some other deep emotion” and “a piece of poetry or prose of particularly acute feeling, and generally irregular rhythm, suitable for reading aloud, such as parts of [[Homer]]”. The word itself comes from the [[Greek]] for a recital of epic poetry.
