Ode to Music

Mesmerizing tones whisper dreams of love,

whisking me away from all that is wrong.

Wings of magic words lifting me above,

intricately sewn into one endless song.

Brightening up every colorless day,

encouraging life with careless delight.

Saving the world from its promised decay,

ending hate and making everything all right.

A soothing friend to dull the rabid pain,

holding on tight to warm our broken hearts.

Falling like a sudden eruption of rain,

picking up pieces and repairing broken parts.

Music is a simple pleasure in life;

the cure to an existence tainted by strife.
