The Light of Music.

Goldfinch60



It was one of those moments

When all was not well.

It could be emotive,

It could be physical,

But my world was at a low.

Then it happened,

That piece of music played

Sending joy into my mind,

And glory into my heart.

All was well,

All was better.

That is the power of music,

It can drag me from the depths,

The depths of despair,

Into the light of my world.

The music in my world

Is so varied, so wonderful,

From jazz to classical,

Country to opera,

Folk to ballet.

So much music out there

All waiting to be played,

To be played for me,

And to keep me in the light,

The light of my world.

    A fine write Gold. Keep choosing music I can't sing too, or I will ruin the whole thing! lol. Oohh I can't see us singing that clip in church. heehee.

    • Goldfinch60

      You can sing Orchi, just come along to our Community Choir and we will prove it to you.

      • orchidee

        Yes, some say I can - they should have been singing more themselves, not listening in to me! lol.

          Hello Goldfinch60,

          A great write.

          I am not musical. I write poetry instead.

          Music you are write is special. There is a song for everyone.

          Keep writing FineB

          So brilliantly said my friend music is a wonderful gift we share with each other for each other while finding our own peacefulness.

          Thank you for sharing music I would not of expected but that's the beauty of life!

          • Goldfinch60

            So kind Dan.

            Yes it is surprising what different kinds of music that I like, there is so much out there.

            Wow I hadn't seen this I love it... It made me think of a mouse driving a juggernaut...
            I loved that Lang Lang was fine freestyling until he came to the Metallica intro then he needed the iPad... It's like they said "OK but you better not mess up our intro piano man"
            Thanks Andy this has made my day as well
            Have a great day

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Andrew, I am a great Lang Lang fan, he always enjoys what he is doing, glad I made your day, I hope it kept well.

              You are a true musician dear Andy and its power will ever be able to bring you joy........... the piece you chose today is electrifying.

              • Goldfinch60

                ThNk you Fay, music is and always has been a major part of my life, listening or playing or singing it is always within me.

                Maybe bc the neurons dance to the vibration of the music

                Cannot sing, but do enjoy music so

                • Goldfinch60

                  The neutrons surely do dance away to music Suresh.
