A Sound Poem
Connected by a beat,
A throbbing of the heart.
Notes rising and falling
In a symphony of art.
Capturing emotion,
Expounding philosophy,
Expressing great love,
Misery to ecstasy.
Created from a drumbeat,
Or plucking of a wire.
Melding into melody
To set the soul on fire.
From all walks of life,
Industrial and rustic.
In all its many forms –
It’s the wonder of music.
