Music

Turn up the music.
Play a tune.
Sing a song .
To the moon.
Strike up the band.

Hear the drums beating.
Rat, a tat , tat.
Your feet dancing.
With a mind of their own.
Keeping time.
Like a poem.
Strike up the band.

Oboe, sax and violin.
All are joining in.
Captures the soul.
Makes you happy.
Dancing, free and bold.
Strike up the band.

The walls resound.
Windows, rattle and shake.
To the sound.
That we make.
Strike up the band.

Come, join with us.
Rejoice, give voice.
To the music.
Of your choice.
Strike up the band.
