Rare is the ear
Not perked up to
The sound of music
For music appeals to
Ears of diverse genres
To various select breeds
And still, there are those
Who listen to music
Only as background noise
They don’t hear the rhythm
Don’t follow the beat
How the notes work together
The story that unfolds
They hear the song
But don’t listen
How the lyrics seduce the ears
As the Pied Piper calls
And pulls you along
In a trance of enticement
Like being carried aloft
On an unseen cloud
Following the melody of notes
Listening closer, and closer
Searching for the source
The essence of what makes you
Who you are

Good write AP.
What? No singing? Alas, my entry here is unscathed. Thanks Orchi. 😁

since I am in a zennish frame o mind .. tell me AP .. what came first, the lyric or the tune .. and just in case a rodent happens along and says chicken, or the B word .. let it be knowed, I just found out where his hutch is ..
p.s. I liked this very much .. and I know Andy's just gonna love it .. 😎👍
The lyric or the tune? That would depend on who's holding the quill. And the rodent in question needs a visit from said chicken for singing lessons. Thank you for reading and commenting N. 😁👍
Music has been in my long life forever AP.
Andy
Me too Andy. 😉 🎼🎶🎵🎶
It moves like nothing else on earth, powerful, unrestrained.
I always search the lyrics.
Music is the medicine for the soul. Thanks 2781. 😊
Or sometimes a dart.
