Music

~ Harlan Didrickson 

It is music 
it’s always been 
just about music
whether it be 
played sung or
heard it’s always 
been about music 
music seduces it
swells it pauses
and begins again 
over and over 
on and on
it sings sweetly 
like honeysuckle caught 
on summer’s breeze
it dances tenderly 
like lavender and 
lilac on those 
first few warm 
days of spring 
it is music
this love is
that we pursue 
and we also 
hope to keep
