The Gift of Music

A wonderful gift
given to the musician
to play a instrument
truly a life mission

To practise your craft
bringing many such pleasure
takes many dedicated hours
with effort and committed endeavour

Whether it be a violin or piano
a clarinet, flute or guitar
indeed a harp or a cello
without it there can’t be a star

The next time you have that chance
to put on your musical ears
remember what brought it about
indeed give a resounding musical cheers
