Listening to music,
I am transported back in time.
From nimble stringed instruments
To husky voices.
The energetic percussion
Keeping feet and thumbs tapping.
Eyes closed,
Letting the music transcend.
From the swaying head
To the melting heart.
The music player is older than my memories
The sound as young as ever.

I love the way music transports us. The last verse of your poem says it all.

Music has always been my favourite medicine.
When I was in a band people sometimes referred to our music as timeless. But I think that’s because we couldn’t hold a beat.

Do you have any recordings of your music? I’d like to hear 🙂

There is nothing as powerful and as demonstrative as music. Other than dance, Music is the ultimate form of communication.
