Music

Music is lovely and divine, food for the mind; on a cold, rainy day, it can be better than sunshine. Music is an institution, a cultural revolution, a worldwide contribution of love, harmony, and goodwill. Music can make time stand still; it is a pleasure and a thrill. It is the cure for the sick and ill, because music will never harm, hurt, or kill.

Music is a gift from God; a living entity that can embrace and stimulate the soul, mind, and heart. It can reproduce feelings of sadness, good times, and joy; remind us when we were young girls and boys, shy and coy, when the world was our toy. Music can make us think about long ago friends who were in our lives way back when. Music is like a medical doctor who is always on duty or call; it can break down racist, biased prejudice, discriminating walls. The sweet sound of music is the equalizer that makes them all fall, because music is here for the pleasure and comfort of us all.

Music has the power to move, groove, and soothe the savage beast. It is so cool, it can bring joy, love, and peace, make us dance, bring on romance, put our minds in a trance, give us the nerve to give love just one more chance. Marriage and babies have come about due to music, because it fuses and soothes but never abuses. Music is associated with celebration, heartbreak, temptation, and obligation to someone or something special that we love and adore and, to this day, still want more.

Music makes depression and stress leave and go on tour to far away shores and never come back anymore. Music is a surreal sound of beauty that cannot be ignored. It has the power to set our mood, entice us like good sex, wine, or food. Music can penetrate the mind, body, and soul; it warms us and never leaves us cold; music can be sensitive, nonchalant, or bold. From jazz, classical, country, hip-hop or rock and roll, music has the power to take absolute control, hold us, capture us, and never let us go. Whether it is fast, moderate, or slow, music can plant and grow humble, eternal, enduring seed. Music helps to take away the pain and make our living sane.

Music can inspire, set the mind and body on fire while touching our desires. The power of music can make us reminisce about a certain event or a long ago friend or lover or a special kiss that we miss that we have not experienced in years. It can bring back memories of yesteryears, tears, and fears of something or someone that we once held dear. Music can dictate what our minds and bodies do, who we choose to make love to. Just as sure as the sky is blue, music is true. It can make our hearts race, set a pace. Make us think of certain people or a special place; a fragrance or taste that we used to adore and embrace; make us dress up, fix up our face to go out, and chase a lovely queen or a charming ace.

Music can make us cry, tell lies, deflate or rise; gives us wings to fly, because music encourages us to aim high, never say die, and always keep our heads to the sky. Music is a treat that is unique and sweet that nothing else in this world could ever compete…with its lyrics, sounds, and beats that make our bodies sway as we pat our feet. Music is artistic, intellectual, heavy, and deep. Music puts a swagger in our step and a smile in our eyes. From the spirit is the source from which it derives; it can make our day complete, our lives sweet; make us smile and say hello to everyone we meet; then rocks us to sleep with a sweet lullaby.

Music is the reason why birds come down from the sky to sing soul music, happy music… We will always use it as a love potion that gets our partner open to love and devotion, because music is the tool that fuels love and emotion, meditation, conversation, participation. Because music is such a beautiful sensation that is due recognition, applaud with appreciation.
