Mind map example pdf for lyric writing

I've been working on making a template for my lyric writing using a mind map. I haven't found a way to make some of the hidden nodes visible to the pdf export, they open when the mouse hovers over them in the software. There's an image of a pen and pad??
I guess that's what it is, to show that there is something there, which is under "verse" //~~//, stress/unstress marks, and on the nodes like verse 1, is the actual text of the lyrics, and the end word is the word I need to rhyme, for example "you" on line 1, and "friend" on line 2, and then enter the results on line 3 and 4, and of course with a line in the lyrics node.

Poetry types and poetry feet are just references that I copied from other mind maps into the song template so I don't have to open other mind maps. So then if I think of something else and make a mind map, if it will help lyric writing, then I can just copy it into the template mind map, and it adjusts itself, and/or I can move it around where I want it.

So far these mind map things are so cool! 8-) So easy and flexible too! I just thought to add web links to my favorite online rhyming dictionaries,lol! If you look at the bottom, you'll see 3 rhyming dictionaries. CTRL+K, then type url beginning with http://
so now I just figured out how to add web links.

Just thinking, if someone had the music, and wanted to play music and write lyrics, I suppose you could hyperlink that also, make a playlist of the song for vlm player, link the playlist in the mind map, click on the playlist link which would automatically open vlm player and play song??

I might make some links to some online thesaurus or something and incorporate the links.

I've looked over some lyric writing software in the past and never found anything that really suited my fancy.
