Song for Life

Strung together are myriad notes
Often words too, to go along
Now the listening of the composition
Gives birth in us to emotions strong.

Souls are touched, we find respite
Or comfort in grief, or ecstasy in joy
Numerous meanings in different life phases
Gifts of music are for everyone to enjoy.

Similarly I hope to be a song
Of lyrics meaningful and melodies soulful
Now my existence I will deem successful
Given I make at least one life purposeful.

Sure the song will not last forever
One day my last note will be played
Notable, let my song be called, if it is
Given at least just one more replay.


An acrostic written and published (take that, you government!) in China.
