Musical Magic

“Read a book” I was told when alone, “Get yourself into the page, Be with the hero written in words, Walking beside him on stage”, But once I’d read it I just sat in the quiet, Not wanting to read it again, I wanted something to last more than one go, And that’s the climactic point when, I reached to my library of favourite bands, Pressed play to the songs that I know, And sat for some hours, relaxing with tunes, That where fleetingly fast to slow, And these tunes I’d heard so many times before, So many times when I was alone, These tunes I call and listen to often, They’re my repeatable friend when I’m home.
