After A Dream.

Goldfinch60



Why does it keep happening?

I sit here reading words,

Typing words,

Music playing in the background

When it happens,

A piece of music stirs me.

This piece came on the radio,

I stopped,

Stopped and listened.

I was taken into a new world,

A world of song.

A new piece of music assailed me,

Assailed my mind and heart.

Why had I not heard it before?

I just sat there listening,

Listening to this glorious sound

In this new world of music,

Music that had come into my life,

Come into my life once more.

        Glad it's (mostly?) music, and not singing. It might be my melodious screeches! lol.

            Music can bring out so many emotions. And beautiful music can bring out wonderful expressions. Thank you.
