If You Please

Music is perpetual, and only the hearing is intermittent. - Thoreau

there's music in the breeze

music in the trees

music that liberates and frees

music to thaw a deep freeze

music to tease and seize

music to hug and squeeze

music to relieve and retrieve

music for whatever you believe or can possibly conceive

there's music to satisfy, stir and appease

music to both weaken and strengthen your knees

music that knows because it sees

music that soars, swooshes and skis

music that buzzes like bees

no matter the weather or degrees

music written on a heart's marquise

it holds all the keys

if you please

Author's Note

"The pleasure we feel in music springs from the obedience which is in it." -Thoreau
