Music

There's always music in our house From when we first awaken. Unless the TV's on, at night, It rarely is forsaken. The radio provides the tracks And what we like may vary, From classical to rock to blues, Whatever tunes they carry. At times, a CD may replace The FM's current choices If their selections don't reflect Our wish for certain voices. The car is also well-equipped To meet our needs when driving And Sirius provides the songs For happy road surviving. I can't imagine life without The music that surrounds us, A sustenance like food or air That definitely grounds us.

I can very much relate to this poem, Ilene. Music is never lacking in our house; anything that suits the mood! ~ Taking this opportunity to wish you all the best for 2020. Regards // paul

When I'm in NYC, music definitely is a necessity -- to drown out the street noise! LOL. Back in the quiet village of Chicago, we listen to the birds sing. LOL, again. Enjoyed, ilene. Best always, Gershon

Well scribed, Ilene! But people forget the alternative! Our home did not have electricity, but I shall never forget my mother singing throughout her chores, from operas to folk songs that no one remembers anymore - but me! Aloha! Rico

This is very true! I remember when I was very little, I had a transistor radio up to my ear all the time! Evolved through LP's and 45's. Also 8 tracks and cassettes. But always there was music!........Have a great day my friend!........pat

Amen to that. I would be lost without my music. Merry Christmas to you Ilene. I also want to say a special thanks, you are the very first person who visited me and left a comment back in 2013 when I first arrived.

Current FM choices is interesting. Abounds around us is also interesting.
