Simple sweet bowing emits nothing but charm,
And tends to create irrepressible calm.
Amongst this atmosphere no mistakes were made,
And it seems like nothing so beautiful has ever been played.
What would life be without it, a medicine that cures anything?
A dusty old book, to which no one can find any meaning?
Ah, music is like an addiction, impossible to let go,
It is unquestionably our friend, never a foe.
Author notes
My inspiration was a quote by Frederich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake." Please comment!
