ALL IT TAKES

ALL IT TAKES All it takes is a gentle chord in muted brass The track does not need to be a tearjerker But that certain sound always hits the mark Not just lungs and lips to make the sound Discipline for sure, but needs emotion too And nostalgia echoes with tears in my eyes Of days gone by with modest contributions A part of sometimes magical arrangements Capturing images of my deepest thoughts Finally freed, and let loose into the world To inspire, maybe trigger some memories It may die away into silence, yet it lingers Perhaps to even haunt another open mind
