Music.... Poem by Poornima Kanasen

Music

An artistic form of communication,
A compilation of sound and silence,
A language where words are impotent,

The rhythm defines it all,
Allocates love into life,
Brings forth the essence of enchantment,

Handed down aurally,
To safeguard the existence of it in the minds of us,
For it can’t be seen,

Escapism, forbearance it is….
From the calamity,
Into the seventh-heaven,

Mellifluous, eloquently it cradles us,
Into the paradise of bliss
Holds us together,

Arrays of individual tones muster life,
All binds as a whole,
That triggers the soul of the dispirited ones,

A sensation of joy, a gift for ourselves……
