The Magic of Music

The trumpet blows Starts tapping toes People start to sing The drummer drums The guitarist strums The place begins to swing The music entrances Encouraging dancers To get up on the floor They wriggle and writhe, Tango and Jive Some just clap or sway Everyone's moving, Laughing while grooving Why do we act this way? Why is music, So therapeutic? Affecting one and all, A sense of Rhythm Is God-given Which makes life a ball.
