Music Is...
March 2, 2021
Whether we express our music
as artists, writers, or in our everyday lives,
if we dare to listen, we can find music all around us.
The breaking, angry cry of a baby,
the cacophony of noise that we call laughter,
and the itch of death’s prying fingers embodies music.
The burn of unshed tears resembles music.
The talons of pain echo music.
The pelting of icy rain roars music.
The glow of love is music;
therefore we are music.

This piece represents the fact that our world doesn't contain music, but is music. The sounds that come with life are all one part of a big, beautiful symphony and if we all stop for a moment, we will hear it.
