Guilty Pleasures.

Goldfinch60



As we look back in our lives

We see all the pleasure we have had

To get us to this place,

This place where we now are.

We see those pleasures

And then remember some guilty ones

Now passed and regretted,

But at the time enjoyed.

 

I too have guilty pleasures,

Or people think I have.

They think I should be guilty about music,

The amount of music I have,

The amount I listen to.

But to my mind

Life is too short to feel any guilt,

Any guilt where music is concerned.

So it just sits there forever,

Music, one of my  guilty pleasures

For which I feel no guilt at all.

      Tunes often pop into my head as well for no apparent reason.

      Life is a stress test. Finding pleasure where you can makes it less stressful
      Nice write....

        Have to agree with Teddy, we all have those guilty pleasures. But as long as it harms no one, why the guilty conscience? Enjoy your music Andy. Great write. ; )

          Thank you AP, so true "as long as it harms no one".
