An Ode to Music

An Ode to Music

You don't words to touch my soul,
You don't words to bring light into my life,
You don't words to paint a picture,
You don't words to make me think of home.

You are a great leveller talking to kings and paupers alike,
You give people identity,
You can unite us,
You can give us hope.

You are as old as humanity itself,
You are always evolving with us,
You can show us our past,
You can show us our future.

You can inspire us to dream,
You can change the future,
You document our lives,
You can drive darkness out of our hearts.

You are a great force for good,
You can help liberate people,
You are mankind's greatest gift,
You could bring unity to mankind if we just listened to you.

You are perhaps my greatest love,
You are there for every occasion,
You are there for the happy times,
You are there for the great tragedies of life.

You can define time and eras,
You can define a man's life like nothing else,
You are the life-blood of me,
You are like the alpha and omega there at the beginning and at the end.
