    Poem Commentary

    I wrote this after staring at my piano for twenty minutes straight, waiting for a sudden stroke of genius to turn me into Mozart 2.0. When that didn't work, I wrote a poem instead.

    Music

    My fingers fly across the keys,
    The bow is drawn against the strings,
    The trumpet blares, the cymbals clash,
    She opens her mouth and starts to sing.
    Music begins.

    Music is not a singular thing.
    It is a place of release.
    Music transports us to a place of wonder,
    A place where dreams are born.
    We escape with Music.

    Music is not just a place.
    It is energy.
    We draw on it to let us imagine.
    Music ripples around us.
    Music creates the wings on which we fly away
    From the worries of the world.

    Music becomes emotion.
    We are humans because we feel.
    We feel music.
    Music is not a sound,
    It is a feeling.

    I agree with your thoughts on music!! Music is not a sound but a feeling. To convey true music is to be expressive in how one plays, sings, relates. Well said! Please read my poem "love is the music ....

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
