My Music

 

I hear the music fill the air

With sounds that sooth my soul;

I love to hear them all the time—

They calm me down. I know

 

That nothing in this whole wide world

Can make me feel that way,

Except the passionate, powerful sounds

Of music that I play.

 

Piano has a lovely sound

With harmonies rich and sweet;

Guitar has chords that echo through

My body to my feet.

 

Tin whistle plays a faery’s song

And takes me on a trip;

While fife will rollick through my mind—

A hornpipe on a ship.

 

I love the pretty music that

My instruments can play;

A tune will always cheer the heart

And make the spirit gay.
