“Music”: A Poem from Michael McCarthy’s Blog

Music

Visceral vibrations
awaken the body
head bobbing,
toe tapping.
Arousal!

It is poetry of the senses
expressing, capturing
humankind’s pulse.
Wholly sensual!

Lyrical revelations
with a few ordinary, well-placed words.
Wisdom unleashed!

But
the real magic
comes from the
interplay
between
sound and silence.
Genius!

Each of us
excitedly awaiting
for that part of the song
which is ours.
Pure enchantment!
