Why Music

Why Music Why music do I so fondly embrace in lieu of bending to the planet's din or seeking an atom's relative place and the orbital mysteries therein? Why do l spurn the lure of fluid grain and turn hard away from the tainted leaf, preferring rather a mournful refrain embodied in a tenor's dulcet grief? Is it in the need so to emulate the hue and passion of musical tone and thus by my heart's rhythm orchestrate the kneeling close by sweet melody's throne? The liquid beauty of harmonic chords, echoing days of wonder, days of bliss, fill my heart brimming with the sweet rewards, blessed memories of each and every kiss.
