^ Learned that the hard way...

For general circumstances, I'd suggest getting movement speed on your rune page, if you really wanna poke a lot early game. Get in, Q, get out. The downside of this is either getting a lot squishier early game, or dealing less damage with your poke. But hey: you get more dynamic gameplay with Sona this way. Another way is getting both Aria of Perseverance and Song of Celerity as soon as you can, and put either one of them as your default stance in between pokes. Which one to pick is based on who Blitz lanes with. If it lanes with melee, Song of Celerity so you can get away easily. If it lanes with a ranged partner, use Aria and keep healing your partner.
