Music Is...
November 17, 2009
Music is calm and relaxing
it fills the heart and soul
taking you to a place of comfort and tranquility
Music is happy and excited
putting smiles on peoples faces,
making us laugh and sing
Music is loud and obnoxious
being unable to hear the person next to you
leaving you ears in an endless ringing state
Music is sad and depressing
filling our bodies with mixed emotions
not knowing what to do next
Music is big and small
repeating words, lines and phrases,
enhancing us with a deep message
Music is everyone
different counties, religions and groups
each having a unique style and rhythm
Music is
LIFE

John has the ability to take something as abstract as music and make it concrete. Excellent metaphors!
