MUSIC
By: Philip Vah
Mrs. Love, Period 2

Music brings joy,
to all of our hearts,
It's one of those,
emotional arts.
Sounds of melodies,
that we truly adore,
Brings us pure pleasure,
as our spirits do soar.
Music that touches us,
we can't help but smile,
We're free to choose,
genre or style.
Music clearly,
enlightens our days,
Makes us happy,
in so many ways.

Analysis - Music
I liked how this poem makes music sound
like something very good. I liked how
happy it sounded.
I chose this poem because it is a way I
would describe music.
This poem has rhyme scheme. It seems to
change a little as the poem goes on.

The chords of my escape.
The feeling of a beat.
The vibration of my soul.
It sends me to my peak.
I just love how it makes me feel,
But there’s no way the feeling is real.
I can close my eyes and look up to the ceiling.
It’s the most pleasurable feeling.
The way it makes me move.
Just gracefully on my feet.
In the chords of my escape.
There are no expectations to meet.
I’m free to be myself.
I can dance, I can sing.
I can twirl around on the floor.
That’s how it’s supposed to be.
But of course, all happiness has to come to an end.
I look at the ground
I sigh and frown.
It's time to let go of my only true friend.
I lift my hand to my ear
And pull out the plastic.
I suddenly feel blank again.
But soon again, I will feel ecstatic
With the chords of my escape.

The Loudest Shadow

It begins as a noise in the background
keeping steady beat as it makes its round
It can be found at any time of day
It's so simple, just push play
It creates a story for everyone's life
as if it understands your struggles and strife
It's impossible to stop, it's purpose will be served
as if not to judge on whether or not you deserve
to feel absorbed in something bigger than yourself
where there is nobody to ever ring the bell
Of complete reality and worry filled days
when life gets too real there's something that says
I'll be with you through the HAPPY and SAD
the really GREAT days and even the BAD
It lingers as if ready at any possible time
to lift you off your feet and begin to fly
away from all the grief, sorrow and pain
to tell your mind that it's free again
No judging or casting a nasty glare
nope, just to let you know that it's always there
as the shoulder to cry on when no one else cares
and casts you alone to face all of your scares
It will give you a feeling that no one else can
and open your eyes to the ever growing span
of opportunity and dare and even the strength
to end it all or just shoot blanks
It tends to all of our daily needs
not for us but with us so we really can see
the magic of you when in a crowd
nothing else will sound as loud
As the beats, bells, and whistles that are in your head
revealing to you a new path to tread
for you will follow no one your path will be your own
because your are lead by something that can't be
owned
To be there for whenever you desire
is its one purpose, to light your fire
it can't be stopped if the will is steady
it can be unleashed, it's always ready
To light up your day or slow down the time
to yell at the world, or even to cry
to help you with whatever you may need
or just to be there for whenever you please
It will live until the end of time
serving its purpose, to let its light shine
remember family, friends and even pets
but most of all music never forget

The Melody

The heart beats in time with the sounds of drums
The hand swaying to the violins chord
Each note is remembered, thought about and adored
As every soul in the room joins to the music and hums
Each sliver of sound buzzing in the brain
The lyrics with a thought about meaning
put together with the guitar as it's loud screaming
The melody that returns to bring my life back again

Music Of My Life
© Kacey Storm
The music takes my soul
Takes it through the wind, and around the autumn trees
As the earth turns slowly
Each song, makes me wonder what really goes on while I'm asleep.
As a disco ball shines through my dreams.
I wish I was awake, as the music plays.
And wished instead of school, I'd get to party and dance all day.
As one song makes you move, and happy
The other makes you cry, and sappy.
Each song with its own act,
Life reacts back.
As each tune,
makes you the way you are
That's why I'm kind of bizarre.
It's hard to believe your song,
is more than just a song
Or a bell is more than a bell.
And a voice, could be as bad as hell
You could lose your soul
Regain it again, each feeling fills you full
As each tune tells you what to do.
Nothing is better than the feeling of the music's 'tude.

Where Words Fail Music Speaks
© Lucy Rudman
Where words fail
music speaks.
It speaks of the pain
of the sorrow. Of
the lost, of
the life we live. It
shares emotions
it's a way to connect,
to understand
what others feel.
Where words fail,
music speaks.
It tells the truth
whether you want it to
or you don't.
Music shares the souls
of those we're around,
of those in the world
that we're living.
I wish to share
my music with you.
So you can understand
the pain I feel.
So I can share my soul with you.
So you can understand
What I'm going through.

Love For The Music
© Waldo Garcia
The rhythm, and of course the beat.
Moving side to side and dancing the floor.
Feel the music flowing all through your feet.
The beats so good, it makes you want some more.
Get lost in the music, carried away.
Feel the deep passion coming from your heart.
Warm like the sun on the beach on mid day.
It's been a part of my life from the start.
Made from things happening in real life.
If you listen closely there is a song.
Some are love and some are blunt as a knife.
I can listen to music all day long.
Music's love or whatever it can be.
Music's the life that is inside of me.

Get Lost In The Music
© Roxane Faulkner
Music is part of my everyday life,
it's the one thing that makes me feel alive.
No matter what it could be,
all music influences me.
Music teaches me everything I do,
After hearing the words, you know it suits you.
Without music I don't know what I would do,
when I'm feeling bad it's the only place I can go to.
Music is my life, my desire,
As I listen, it builds me higher.
No matter what kind, rock, country, or rap,
you can't convince me that any of it is crap.
Whatever you're feeling, whether its happy, sad or fear,
just turn it up and listen to what you hear.
To me music could never go wrong,
I could listen to it all day long.

The Music of Life
by anitapoems.com
Music has the power,
to help and to heal,
It's truly amazing,
how it makes us feel.
It brings us hope,
and a positive mind.
Motivates us,
to be friendly and kind.
Music offers messages,
about others and earth,
Guides us with purpose,
assures that we're worth.
A single song,
countless hearts it may touch,
Will help us love others,
so very much.
Music is here,
to entertain and inspire,
Has the potential,
to ignite our inner fire.
Together with music,
we can create good,
We have what it takes,
we definitely should.

My Poems

This is a dinglepuff
Dinglepuffs live in dens in downtown of dreary Denmark
Dinglepuffs eat donuts, dwarves, dogs, and Dane Cook
Dinglepuffs like dampening clothes, drawing themselves, dining out, and
drinking
Dinglepuffs don’t like demented children, dragons, or Dinkleberg
This dinglepuff drew on my face and dyed my hair. It destroyed my
dignity

There once was a man named Wes
Who would put his foes to the test
He was known as a god
Driving in a hot rod
Nobody could beat him at chess

School
Tedious, bland
Boring, stressing, crushing
It’s really lame for some people
Prison

Presidency
Important, Stressful
Writing, Signing, Ordering
Documents, Pens, Chairs, Offices
Obeying, Working, Listening
Hard, Tedious
Employee

Just because I’m Wes
Don’t think of me lower than yourself
Don’t think I’m not a god
Still worship me everyday
Just because I’m Wes
It doesn’t mean I can’t easily take over the world
It doesn’t mean I’m not king of Pickerington
It doesn’t mean I’m not cooler than everybody in
existence
Just because I’m Wes
Still, I’m the ultimate superior being
But I can’t start like that on day one
Just because I’m Wes – bow to me
