It is not money
or wrapping paper you need
but a gift from the heart and soul.
you are my muse today
and not in a way others may gossip
but in the ways of the seven muses
art is a way of expressing all the
words you cannot say
or the emotions you feel stuck inside
your throat
first there was a bell that rang for you
running down that street to make your class
then there was the bells of your wedding day
marrying the love of your life
having two angels in your life
to protect and nourish.
Words are meaningless to some
but Music it can inspire
periods, eras, time, moments
Music can capture you
and take you back
to your very first kiss
poem, love, marriage, divorce,
break up, make up.
I always wanted to make music
this is what I was probably meant
to do
but words came easier
back then there was no money
for lessons
but a pen and paper
made me who I am.
You made this song
that inspired this poem
for you
so
celebrate
the music inside you
each and every day
for you bring this gift
with you everywhere you go.
