Music and Poetry

Music like poetry

Is the voice of the soul

A yearning for freedom

A cry for the purest form of self

 

Music like poetry

Identifies us as individuals

A true expression

Of who we are

Of what we feel

A true emotional release

 

Music like poetry 

Opens flood gates

Of emotion waters

Every note

Every line

Every cord

Every stanza,  verse, and chorus 

A true out pouring of

Blood

Sweat 

Tears

Joy

Laughter

 

Music like poetry 

Has the power to transcend time and space

It transfers us to another time and place

Simpler times

Quite times

Times of upheaval and rebellion 

The memories flow

With each note bestowed upon our listening ear

 

Music like poetry 

Defines us
