Music of Life

Drifting down a valley filled with flowers
Is beautiful music, with a mystic power
To replenish the hunger of a starving soul
To make it heal, to make it whole.
To remove the memory of a lifelong strife--
The purest music, the music of life.

It tells the life-story right from birth
Of innocent childhood, filled with mirth
Every detail, all the 'sugar n spice'
Above all love, love of sacrifice.
Desires & aspirations of a hopeful youth--
This music reveals nothing but truth.

It reveals all joy & misery
What could have been, and what had to be.
The agony of one deceived
The joy of a goal achieved
It portrays my heart's elation
This music is a source of inspiration.

For all my sins, it forgives
The courage I lack, it gives--
The courage to rise again once I fall.
And the angels' beckoning call
Through this music, sounds sweet & clear
When life's end is near.
