What's the soundtrack to your life?
The noisy cymbals crash,
the trumpets blare,
the timpani just slightly out of tune.
Where's the music to get us through the day?
The bing bang clang of church bells.
Tangy juice flavored clarinets sing out,
sweet low pangs of saxophone.
Do you race off with dramatic sighs?
Hear the painful soft of piano?
The confident air of a mezzo forte?
Can you see the regal march in forte?
The kingly sounds of years now gone.
Or has it all been lost to the swirling spinning fortissimo?
The brooms toss their buckets of water,
the wizards hat just out of reach of your finger tips.
Do you hear that fabled soundtrack of your life?
The bing bang boom of musical splendor
hidden just beyond the reach of our ears.
A majestic start,
a heartening middle,
followed by a somber section of trials pains.
The beautiful triumphant return of the horns,
brazen bold,
they sum up the beautiful sunrise sunset succinctness of life.
Sunrise, sunset.
If you listen close you'll hear the music around you.
The tell tale signs are always there.
A beautiful morning air,
the calm feeling of dusk and dawn.
The bing bang blast of an orchestra warm up.
That pre-life warm up,
those harmonic melodic intervals of life,
time for our grand finish.
A one two three,
Two two three,
Three two three waltz,
fading slowly as the dancers halt.
Rest and listen,
enjoy the song of your life.
That beautifully orchestrated,
short yet wonderful,
musical soundtrack that you call your life.
