Notes

I really enjoy listening to music.  Songs give me a plethora of ideas for some of my poems. The lyrics of some songs are poems themselves. Sometimes, the melody of a song helps me create my own poem. This poem is about my love of music.

Notes

With the melody, I am reborn.

It is the drug that helps me live.

Each note caresses my ears

And sweeps across my soul

Until I can’t catch my breath.

Colors are brighter with the rhythm.

Moments are sweeter.

Without these notes,

My days are empty and lifeless.
