Music
Switch on
The tape recorder
Let the music begin…
Do not touch
The pause,
Fast forward,
Stop,
Eject,
Or, the Rewind buttons!
Let the music
Flow at its
Usual pace!
I do not
Want to rush
Into my future
By pressing
The ‘Fast Forward’ button!
Nor,
Do I want to retrace
My steps
Into my hoary past
with
The ‘Rewind’ button!
Let the music
Play as it always does
I want
To enjoy the present moment
I want to enjoy
The music
I want to
Take life as it comes
At its natural pace!
I do not
Want to pause,
Stop,
Eject,
Fast forward,
Or, rewind my life.
I just want
To unwind
And enjoy
The music—
Because,
Music
Is Life!
