Listen to poem:

Music - the Universal Language

Hear a song.Dig the sounds.                                                                                     Inside your head they swirl around and round.               
Play a tune.Feel the beat.
You snap your fingers and you tap your feet.
It excites you,delights you.
Makes you want to sing and dance.
It can soothe you,move you.
Even put you in a trance.
Nothing could be more true.
The power music has over you.

It's the wave of the future.
It's a blast from the past.
It's a hit in the present.
Will it fade.Will it last.
Music is universal.All the world loves a song.
Music stirs your emotions.Feelings come,very strong
Hey,that tune is really fine.Got me feeling so sublime
Want to hear it one more time.Got to hear it one more time.

CLASSICAL  JAZZ  HIPHOP  SWING  FOLK  ROCK  BLUEGRASS  POP
GOSPEL  WORLD  R&B. REGGAE  LATIN  EDM  COUNTRY

You can stream it.Play a CD. Hear it canned or hear it live.
Radio TV or PC. Oh what pleasure you'll derive.
Makes you smile.Brings you tears.
How wonderful.It's music to my ears.
Doesn't matter where you're from
A worldwide phenomenon.
Every country. Every tongue. Every culture.
EVERYONE!
