As I sit hear listening to music,
I wonder how these wonderful sounds
Reach straight to my heart and soul.
It could be Mozart or Brubeck,
Verdi or Pink Floyd.
So many different types
Mean so much to me.
Sinatra singing his way,
Tito Gobi’s rich bass voice,
Dolly Parton’s Jolene,
The Bird blasting from his sax,
Barenboim soothing at the piano,
Cash walking the line.
If as the Bard said
That ‘Music be the food of love’,
Then I have been eating it
For all my life,
And loving it even more.
So many types.
So much music.
So little time.
