Music covers the extremes of life


Music covers the extremes of life,
The calm, the gentle, the stress and strife.

It floats all around like a soft white cloud,
Or thumps your chest when it’s much too loud.

You can lose yourself, your thoughts are free,
It opens a window so your mind can see.

Your world it is perfect almost surreal,
Your imagination runs wild it is unreal.

So just sit back, close your eyes and drift,
On a floating wave that’s a gracious gift.

Each note is pure, so crisp and clear,
Let your body relax, your thoughts hold no fear.
