Musical Passion

MUSICAL PASSION Music is the living soul And beating heart of humanity. It lights my fire of passion Or tames my restless spirit. Music calls me to live, taste, feel and see. The spark of hope and change is ignited. I hear the voice of the silenced and Feel the anguish of the oppressed. The soothing, soulful sounds of Mangione’s flugelhorn makes me “Feel so Good. “ The gritty, nasally voice of Dylan Calls me to listen, for the answers “Blowin’ in the Wind.” The rich baritone of Cash Warns me not to fall In to the “Ring of Fire.” Fogerty’s powerful voice Invites me to dance with Willie and the Po Boys “Down on the Corner.” With Hank I can taste that Home made “Jambalaya” On the bayou. Peter, Paul and Mary Take me to that cherry lane with “Puff the Magic Dragon.” I can now call myself “Deacon Blues” When I lose, Becker and Fagan tell me. I can taste the sweet Tupelo Honey that flows From the voice of Van Morrison Jim Morrison said it for me taking poetic license music Light’s My Fire.
